Ashley’s cystic fibrosis journey began just 10 days after her daughter Cali was born, when newborn screening confirmed Cali had CF. The diagnosis came as a complete shock - neither Ashley nor Cory knew of any family history. The numbness lifted at their first visit to the Edmonton pediatric CF clinic. “Our Edmonton clinic brought me back to life after Cali’s diagnosis. Amanda, a nurse, was the first person I met there, and I will remember her for the rest of my life. It brought me back from the dark place.” said Ashley.

💙 September is Newborn Screening Awareness Month. Thanks to advocacy efforts, CF screening is now available across Canada, giving children like Cali the chance to grow up healthier and stronger.

Something special happened in Calgary recently.💙 We brought together nearly 200 clinicians from across Canada for the first ever Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Conference: a space for connection, learning, and shaping the future of CF care. From our new national guidelines to conversations about aging, pregnancy, and clinical trials, the energy in the room was inspiring. Thank you to everyone who joined us and to our sponsors who made it possible. Read more about this incredible event: http://bit.ly/48AaVu4
