CF vs Us: The Story of a Battle Between a Family and Cystic Fibrosis

Cystic Fibrosis is the United Kingdom's most common life-threatening inherited disease affecting over 8,000 people. Cystic Fibrosis affects the internal organs, especially the lungs and the digestive system, making it hard for sufferers to breathe and to digest food. Life expectancy has improved and is improving but, at present, averages only 31 years. This book tells the story of one family, our family. It recalls memories of living with something that turned our life upside down and inside out. It made us see life in a wholly different way. This is the story of how we faced this terrible disease and how we now are able to see the future in a more positive light.
