An exciting TV program on CF!

Dear Friends of the CF community,

My name is Isabel Stenzel Byrnes and I am a 30 year old twin with CF. My

twin sister, Anabel and I were graciously invited to Washington, DC this

year, to be interviewed for a tv show called " Medical Answers " . The program

shows once a week on PBS or a PBS affiliate station and features and expert

who talks about a specific disease each session. Ana and I were interviewed

for their session on cystic fibrosis, which will consist of 4 half hour

segments over 4 weeks. We realize the staff at Medical Answers has done an

excellent job of putting together a very informative program on cystic

fibrosis and it will be sent to PBS stations on Thursday, November 28th.

Please read the enclosed information on how you and your friends can learn

about how to watch this excellent program. Ana and I absolutely love sharing

our stories and we hope your CF community members can also learn something

about CF by watching the show. We are very grateful to Genentech, Inc, who

sponsored this terrific program and is equally interested in spreading the

word about CF.

I kindly ask that you please post this message on your websites, online

programs, newsletters, etc. There is a little work to be done to get the

program on all local channels...THank you very much for your help.

Please let your friends, familiy members, health care teams, newly diagnosed

community members, etc. know about this upcoming program.

Thanks so much for your work for the CF community. In gratitude,

Isabel Stenzel Byrnes.

Here is the flyer: I have also attached it as well. Please share the info

ASAP!
