This is the inspiring account of Andy Lipman's life with cystic fibrosis and the candid story of a young man finding his way in the world, despite big challenges. Cystic fibrosis affects seventy thousand people worldwide. In the United States, thirty thousand people live with cystic fibrosis and each year several hundred die as a result. When I was born in the early seventies, life expectancy for those with CF was in the teens. It is Andy's declaration that everyone, including medical professionals who told him he could not live past the age of 25, was wrong. This is the story of a competitive person with a life-threatening disease-the story of a person with hopes and dreams, just like everyone else, who must also deal with extraordinary circumstances. Andy writes about how he has dealt with depression for most of his life and the negative effects it has had on his family and loved ones. His purpose in writing this is to raise awareness about cystic fibrosis and to help fund cystic fibrosis research.
