Re: " whites only " diseaseResponse

I have heard: CF is known as the rich man's disease cause its mostly white

wealthy people - i.e. BOOMER

A Dr. told me " you're lucky your kids don't have sickle cell there is no

money going into research there "

My sister was telling a Dr. about " rare " things and he told her he had a

patient who was white with sickle cell.

Hey -- we can think of slogans..........CF - every man's disease........or CF

knows NO boundaries or CF does not discriminate or CF something for

everyone........ok...I am getting punchy being stuck in with this cold

weather!!!!!!!!!

Its freezing here and there are predicting a foot of snow!!

I will try and think of more things!
