I just read a little autobiography about Hal after googling his name. He is a remarkable man.
It really amazes me how every case of cf can be so different. He manages to live to be 77 yet is symptomatic his whole life. It is as if his disease was in slow motion.
I basically had zero lung symptoms until I was 15 or 16. I had mild symptoms at 18 finished college at 22 but despite taking care of myself, having access to better antibiotics, the vest and visiting my clinic 3 to 4 times I year since I was a baby, I am now 28 and waiting for a transplant.
