Episode 3: Peggy Lillis Foundation
In this episode, Candace DeMatteis interviews Christian Lillis, cofounder of the Peggy Lillis Foundation. Christian and his brother Liam started the foundation to advocate for greater awareness of Clostridioides difficile, or C. diff, a deadly superbug that claimed the life of their mother, Peggy. By educating the public, empowering advocates, and shaping policy, the Peggy Lillis Foundation aims to help create a world in which C. diff is rare, treatable, and survivable. Tune in to hear Peggy's story and learn more about what we can do to address the ongoing threat of antimicrobial resistance.
