Cystic Fibrosis is the name of a fatal genetic disease which is currently affecting over 35,000 Americans and over 70,000 Canadians across the world. This has mostly been viewed as a childhood disease as it usually known to be fatal during the mid or late teens. Although, the scenario has changed and the median age of the disease has grown up to the 40s there are still people suffering from this ailment. Due to medical advancements in drugs along with lung transplants the scenario has improved over the years.
