I was asked to preview a documentary about Cystic Fibrosis on Twitter. I thought it was pretty informative so I am going to share the link.
It is a relatively short documentary (10 minutes) that is about Ross Llewelyn's typical day living with Cystic Fibrosis. Much of his day is very similar to Nathan's day, breathing treatments, fat soluble vitamins, digestive enzymes, etc...but he also uses a G-tube for nighttime feeds, has to monitor his blood sugar frequently because he has CFRD (Cystic Fibrosis Related Diabetes) and respond with insulin, and also must also take medications for Osteoporosis. G tubes, CFRD, and Osteoporosis are all common in individuals with Cystic Fibrosis.
You can watch the documentary here or you may watch below. I believe it is well worth 10 minutes of your time.
