Interview with ERT. Despina Gini, Deputy Treasurer of the Association, talks about life with Cystic Fibrosis

A very meaningful and human interview was recently aired on ERT with the participation of the Deputy Treasurer of the Panhellenic Cystic Fibrosis Association, Despina Gini, our Association member Vivi Katsanou, as well as the doctors of the Adult Cystic Fibrosis Unit at the General Hospital “Papanikolaou” of Thessaloniki.

Through their personal stories as patients with Cystic Fibrosis and as mothers, they honestly highlighted their everyday life with the disease, the difficulties they face, the hope offered by lung transplantation, the invaluable value of organ donation and the strength needed to carry on with dignity.

We would like to thank Despina Gini and Vivi Katsanou for their courage and the inspiration they offer to all patients, as well as the doctors who support our patients on a daily basis.
