Today on WNPR Connecticut, the producers ran an hour-long story about CF, covering 3 patients: Connor, a 16 year old patient in need of a liver transplant;
Brian, a 29 year old patient in end-stage lung disease who is opting against transplant;
ME, 29 year old transplant-seeking me!
The part of the broadcast about me starts about 25 minutes in, but I encourage you to listen to the whole story because the beginning, focusing on Connor's story, is moving and inspiring- and for those CFers reading, he reminds me of my teenage self.

Other than that, I'm having a great weekend, and you have one too! ctfo
