From Hunstanton to Wells for Pulmonary Fibrosis · 15 September 2019

Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis (APF) is a growing community of patients, families, researchers and healthcare professionals striving to find a cure for pulmonary fibrosis so that everyone affected by the disease has a better future. Every penny donated is a victory against this devastating disease.

Story

When I was diagnosed with Idiopathic (= no known cause) Pulmonary Fibrosis 3 years ago, it was a shock but I didn't feel very different. As it inevitably progresses, though, I find I can do less and less as my breathlessness increases and my muscles don't get enough Oxygen. Ironically, I can no longer do most of the Health Walks that I help organise! 

But I can still walk, albeit slowly and in stages, in the beautiful Norfolk scenery and this seems the best way of setting a motivating challenge for myself while also raising much needed funds for the charity Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis. 

To raise awareness of IPF, I shall be doing this during World Pulmonary Fibrosis Week, 15th - 22nd September 2019.
