Thank God for a farsighted campaigner

AS the parent of a child with cystic fibrosis (CF) I was horrified at the terrifying plight of these sufferers aired on RTÉ’s Liveline radio programme.

My son will attend CUH as an adult patient in the next four years, so it was with a huge sense of relief that I read (Irish Examiner, October 8) about the new adult CF clinic which will be ready next February with the protected beds following shortly afterwards.

I thank God Joe Browne had the foresight, 12 years before his son will attend the adult clinic in Cork, to raise funds for CF sufferers through the build4life charity.
