Check out this article from the CFF Foundation! There is a new drug coming out to help treat the underlying causes of CF, not just the symptoms!
The one that is currently awaiting FDA approval won't help Judith, since she doesn't carry that mutation. But if you read the end of the article, there is another drug they're looking at that would have the potential to help her since she does carry the DF508 mutation!
This is huge news - just reading this and knowing that there may be more hope for Judith's future is amazing!
