"You know you changed the history of medicine, right?"
How did we turn a disease that would kill you before your 5th birthday into one that may never kill you at all? Easy: Decades of tireless, constant and relentless advocacy by parents who refuse to accept a horrible fate for their children. In the season finale of Breathless, we hear from two of the most influential people in Cystic Fibrosis history and learn how a refusal to give up in the 1950s led us down a path to revolutionary treatment, and a fight for a cure that continues today.
