Story
My Daughter
Lola Rose was born on the 3rd of july 2008 six weeks early weighing in at 4lb 30z.
Two weeks later Lola was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis through the new born heel prick test, and became very i'll and spent months in hospital on all types of IV antibiotics and Oxygen.
As a new baby Lola had to fight very hard to recover and be strong again.
Lola Rose is now 18 months old and we have had a good year, and if we all keep fighting for that cure. Lola and all Cystic Fibrosis suffers will have all of their life being well and able to breath easy.
Cystic fibrosis is a hereditary disease which affects the entire body, causing progressive disability and often, early death.
Difficulty breathing is the most serious symptom and results from frequent lung infections that are treated, though not cured, by antibiotics and other medications.
The condition is caused by a mutation in a gene that helps create sweat, digestive juices and mucus, It causes a build-up in the lungs.
Cystic Fibrosis is on of the uk's most common life-threatening inherited conditions.
Cystic Fibrosis affects the internal organs, especially the lungs and digestive system, by clogging them with thick sticky mucus. This makes it hard to breathe and digest food.
Each week, three young lives are lost to Cystic Fibrosis.
