    Shout Out to Charles Michael Duke, Actor and Singer with CF

    @charles_mduke is an actor and presenter from Bournemouth. He was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at birth and had a fairly healthy childhood with around one admission of IV antibiotics a year. In 2014, however, it all started to go a bit downhill and he started to be admitted more regularly, and his lung function started to rapidly decline. A year later, he was listed for a double lung transplant.⠀
    ​⠀
    In May 2018, after waiting for 3 years, Charles finally received his transplant and has been continuing to promote CF, organ donation and sing, which is only possible thanks to his donor and their family.⠀

    We’re so happy to see Charles thriving post-transplant!
