Life with Pulmonary Fibrosis | Portraits of PF - Gary and Marianne

Gary and Marianne were married just two and a half years when Gary was diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. They found hope and inspiration in their local support group and are now leaders of the group. Marianne describes the difficulties of dealing with the disease as it progresses. As a caregiver, Marianne takes care of herself so that she can be in the best possible shape to support Gary. Marianne and Gary stay proactive, positive and open-minded in their journey with PF.
UPDATE: Gary has received a lung transplant and is recovering well.
The Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation (PFF) offers essential programs and resources for people with pulmonary fibrosis. The mission of the PFF is to mobilize people and resources to provide access to high quality care and to lead research for a cure so that people with PF will lead longer, healthier lives.
