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.

Our Little Swimmer
It has been shown that regular swimming can assist in mucus clearance and improve ventilatory function in children with cystic fibrosis. For this reason, we want to get our Ellis swimming as soon as possible. Luckily, Ellis is already a water baby. Check out this video of her kicking away in my parent's pool!
