Bogota, Colombia - Valeria

VALERIA WAS DIAGNOSED AT 8 MONTHS OLD, FROM THERE OUR LIVES CHANGED COMPLETELY, THERAPIES, NEBULIZATIONS, MEDICINES, VITAMINS, A WHOLE NEW ROUTINE FOR HER AND US, HER PARENTS, NO ONE IS PREPARED TO RECEIVE SUCH NEWS. PERCUSSION THERAPIES HAVE BEEN DIFFICULT DUE TO INEXPERIENCE AND THE LACK OF EDUCATION THAT WE HAVE RECEIVED IN COLOMBIA IN THIS REGARD, VALERIA IS VERY SMALL AND DOES NOT EXPECT, DOES NOT BEAT MUCUS, WHICH MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO PICK MUCH OUT OF HER LUNGS.

What does receiving a vest from CF Vests Worldwide mean to you and your family?

IT WOULD HELP US A LOT, SHE IS NOT ABLE TO PASS MUCO OUT BY HERSELF, THERAPIES WITH HAND BEATS ON HER LUNGS DOES NOT WORK, WE ARE INEXPERIENCED PARENTS ON THIS SUBJECT, WE DO NOT DO IT WELL AND SHE IS A BABY WHO GETS ANNOUNCED AND DOES NOT KNOW LET IT DO WELL. THE VEST WOULD BE A SOLUTION AND IT WOULD HELP HER SERIOUSLY TO REMOVE THOSE MUCOS FROM HER LUNGS.
