Review for Cystic Fibrosis Research Institute (CFRI), Palo Alto, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been volunteering for ~ 25 years for CFRI. CFRI reached out to us shortly after our daughter was born and diagnosed w/ CF. We were scared about how long our daughter would live. The life expectancy at that time was ~18 years but what did that really mean? How severe was our daughter's CF? What should we being doing as parents? Seemed like thousands of questions were racing thru our heads! CFRI was there to comfort and educate us! They pointed us to CF doctors and other members of the CF Community we could talk to. They are not just an organization formed to raise money for research! They are just as concerned about the quality of day-to-day life for people living w/ CF. I am convinced that the support and care that CFRI has provided has definitely helped extend the lives of those living w/ CF!
