It was actually a tie, and my art will be on the front of the shirt, and this lovely artist's work will be on the back of the shirt:
fav.me/d300u5lI am honored and happy to be able to contribute somehow to creating awareness about Cystic Fibrosis; a serious disease of which most people do not know much about.
Some Cystic Fibrosis facts:
-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.
