WHAT IS CYSTIC FIBROSIS?

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common fatal genetic disease affectingCanadian children and young adults. There is no cure.

Cystic fibrosis causes a build-up of thick mucus in the lungs leading tosevere respiratory problems. Similarly, mucus and protein build-up inthe digestive track results in extreme difficulty in the digesting andabsorbing adequate nutrients from food.

The effects of cystic fibrosis are most devastating in the lungs.Ultimately, most CF deaths are due to lung disease. More than 4,000Canadian children, adolescents, and adults with cystic fibrosis receivespecialized care at one of the 42 CF clinics across the country.

Together with Kin Canada, we will make cystic fibrosis history.

Then and NowIn 1960, most children with cystic fibrosis

did not live long enough to attend

kindergarten. Today, because of the

support of Kin members and other

generous donors, Canadians with cystic

fibrosis have one of the highest survival

rates in the world.

To get involved please contact your nearest Kin club, www.kincanada.ca or Cystic

Fibrosis Canada at www.cysticfibroisis.ca
