Summer

Welcome e-Patients: 

Summer conjures images of relaxation, travel, and exploring.  We look forward to making summer memories with families and friends.  Traveling with CF requires planning ahead; please enjoy our Tips for Travel article submitted by site member, Lauren Beyenhof. 

Healthcare costs are rising, healthcare submissions and navigating the system can be frustrating to say the least.  Listen to Jerry’s podcast as he interviews Beth Sufian, Esq. exploring the challenges of health insurance.  

Second Life is heating up this summer!  Visit Imogene Arctor, read up on the SL blogs, and request help or more information on how to join us on CF Island.  We have so many events in store for you!

This month we wish our own Jerry Cahill a very Happy Birthday and Best Wishes for many, many more!  Jerry celebrates his 52nd birthday this week! 

 Safe travels this summer!

Stay tuned! Jerry will begin production of a series of exercise videos! Production is scheduled for July.
