If I Could Cure ONE Disease
If I could cure one disease, I would
cure Cystic Fibrosis. This disease really hits home for my family & I. My
mom’s best friend had cystic fibrosis, and had to deal with it her whole life.
She passed away at a very young age. She was a mother, wife, and best friend. I
don’t think anyone should have to deal with losing a loved on, so in honor of
her, I would cure cystic fibrosis.
Five facts about the disease
·
About
1,000 new cases of cystic fibrosis are diagnosed each year.
·
More
than 70% of patients are diagnosed by age two.
·
The
predicted median age of survival for a person with CF is in the late 30s.
·
CF
patients need to take enzyme replacement medication to be able to absorb fat
and protein.
·
To
have cystic fibrosis both of your parents must’ve been carriers of the gene to
pass it on to the child.
I support a foundation called “Cystic
Fibrosis Foundation.” Every year this foundation has around 100 walks to raise
money to find a cure. To increase awareness, they sell bracelets that all the
proceeds go to, I have one and I wear it everyday! Everything in support goes
to helping find a cure.

Today in class we were assigned a task to write a post about our upcoming dessert dance. The themes are able to choose from are: Glow in the Dark, Neverland, and Night in Hawaii. I think the best choice would be Neverland. I mean, in it were Glow in the Dark you couldn't see anyone! I think Neverland would fit out class because it is just a reminder that you are starting to grow up, so you need to slow down and enjoy now. My vision for decorating would be to have the silhouettes of all the characters, have white Christmas lights strung all around to make it look like stars, the tables could have somewhat old looking fabric like the dress Wendy wears. I would contribute to this night by making sure we have everything we could possibly need. I would be on the decorating committee to help make this night memorable!
