- Title: With Every Breath: stories by and about people living with cystic fibrosis
|
Product Description: Over 30,000 people in the US have cystic fibrosis, a life-threatening genetic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system. Physically, fighting it is a very perilous struggle. Emotionally, coping can oftentimes be even harder. With Every Breath consists of stories by and about people living with cystic fibrosis. Created to motivate, inspire, and generate positivity for those living with cystic fibrosis, this book is something you can open time and time again. Designed for all ages, this collection of diverse stories offers unique perspectives from patients, a CF doctor and nurse, and family members of those living with the illness. Patients aren't the only ones who will want to read With Every Breath as family members, friends, and doctors can all find inspiration when they open it. The stories range from overcoming challenges, understanding the disease, lung transplants, diagnosis stories, and more. The book is filled with fun artwork, uplifting quotes, and photography. Celine Dion contributed the Foreword, and there are chapters by people of all ages and walks of life. This book is sponsored by the Boomer Esiason Foundation, and all proceeds will go to cystic fibrosis.
