Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my just giving page.
Noah was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at only 8 days old, a life long condition caused by a gene mutation which effects the flow of salt and water in the body and causes a build up of mucous, most commonly in the lungs and digestive system.
At 2 weeks old, Noah started his life long medication of a concoction of antibiotics, vitamins, enzymes, antacids and most recently a nebulizer, as well as physio twice a day. At 3 weeks old, Noah was admitted to the RVI, Newcastle with parainfluenza, which kept him there for a week of IV antibiotics. In the 6 months that followed, Noah was on around 6 more courses of oral antibiotics to treat recurring coughs and eventually he was admitted to West Cumberland Infirmary, at 7 months old, where he spent 4 days and then continued with IV antibiotics at home...Then he had 6 weeks cough free!!!
There's a cure out there... Please help us find it!
