Driven by Passion
Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a little-known lung disease that affects more than five million people worldwide. Approximately 40 - 50,000 people in the US are diagnosed each year and another 40,000 die annually. Currently, there are no available therapies to stop or reverse the disease's progression. Fueled by personal loss and frustration, one family channeled grief into action and created Three Lakes Foundation.
