Wow..what an amazing woman. Claire Wineland who battled CF with courage, humor, and optimism.

This is an incredible documentary about an amazing girl, Claire Wineland. She battled CF with so much humor, courage, and was wise beyond what most of us achieve our whole lives. She wanted to live to 21, which she did. Passed @ 21.

This documentary popped up on my FB feed. I hadn't heard of Claire before, now I want to learn more. And it looks like I had her last name wrong so appreciate the additional information.

If only spent the resources on supporting those who have it, and finding a cure for this and other horrors, that we spend instead on researching ways to better kill each other.
