In Memory

Living requires more than just breathing. It requires making the most of every minute we have on this earth, regardless of challenges.

“The CF Warrior Project: 65 Stories of Triumph against Cystic Fibrosis” is a book about warriors who have fought hard for every breath and milestone.

Cystic fibrosis has claimed many CF Warriors. However, each has achieved a tremendous amount during their lifetimes. They deserve to have their stories shared, and to be recognized, honored and remembered.

Their legacies are achievements that improve quality of life for other CF Warriors. Their determination gives hope for a fulfilling life — and hope for a cure.
