Episode 1 - Living with Cystic Fibrosis - The Early Years
In episode 1, we meet Bernadette, born in 1967 as a triplet and one of 8 kids. Bern and her sister were diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at a time when very little was known about the disease. This episode is our first glimpse into Bern's incredible attitude and ability to stay positive. This episode also surprised us as we reflected on Bern's mom's challenges raising 8 kids and refusing to accept the doctor's prediction that her two little girls with CF would not live to 3 years old.
