Day 15 of #31DaysOfCF: In Pakistan, Life With CF Is Hard
Sumaiya Shahid’ lives in Pakistan. For Sumaiya, being a CFer and living in Pakistan has been very difficult and heartbreaking. Families don’t know about the condition, doctors are not CF trained, and treatment costs are not affordable.
But her faith and determination to defeat the disease have helped her a lot. She has been blessed recently with some online support from a trained doctor from overseas, and she now belongs of a group of families with CF who support each other.
Sumaiya, we are so happy to hear things are looking up!
