Coping with the Emotional Rollercoaster

Our CF education workshops are in partnership with Bright Beginnings: a program for parents of newly diagnosed children with CF. Guest speaker, Lisa Greene, parent and Certified Family Life Educator, presented on "coping with the emotional rollercoaster".

The emotions of dealing with CF have been described as being on an "emotional rollercoaster." Learning how to accept and cope with the ups and downs of life with CF as early as possible will help you build resilience.
