On November 1, 2010, our daughter, Ellis Rose, was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at 7 days old. Our family is now committed to finding a cure for this illness that 70,000 people around the world suffer from. The first words our doctor said to us during our first visit to the CF Clinic were "We are very hopeful for Ellis". Hope is a word we hear a lot in the CF community, and it is the best way to sum up how we feel as we continue our fight against CF.
