YAY it won! Thank you!

For a T-Shirt contest for a Cystic Fibrosis walk.
The contest is in the group "Emily's Army" [link]

I think this might look nice on the back of the T-Shirt, and the words about the walk could go on the front. It would look nice on the front, too. I think it would look best on light pink T-shirts.

I just wanted to contribute somehow and help raise CF awareness! Good luck to everyone in the contest!!

Different file types and sizes are available if needed.

Some facts about CF:

-The name, cystic fibrosis of the pancreas, was first
applied to the disease in 1938.

-Children who couldn't pronounce Cystic Fibrosis called the disease 65 Roses

-While several decades ago most children with Cystic Fibrosis died by age 2, today about half of all people with Cystic Fibrosis live past age 31.

-Cystic Fibrosis is a genetic disease, meaning it is caused
by a defect in the person's genes.

- There are over 500 known defects in the CFTR gene that can cause Cystic Fibrosis. However, 70% of all people with a defective CFTR gene have the same defect, known as delta-F508.

Hi Tanya, 

I'm putting together a short video about CF research at University of North Carolina.  We want to make a custom puzzle and have the scientists put it together on film as a metaphor for assembling research to cure CF.  Could we use your beautiful work of art on this puzzle?  We would credit you as the creator of the piece.  Please let me know! 

Cheers,

Elliot
