Lakewood, CO -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/07/2015 -- May is Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month. All across the country people are getting involved in spreading awareness about this life-threatening disease, and to support the mission to find a cure. Cystic Fibrosis is a genetic disease that affects the pancreas and the lungs. It affects approximately 30,000 Americans and 10 million more are carriers with no symptoms of the CF gene.
How to Get Involved
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation will be hosting its signature "Great Strides" walk in many cities across the country, most of these walks will be taking place between May 17 and 18. Check community calendars for exact times, dates and locations.
Another great way to get involved is simple and easy. By using social media outlets such as Facebook, Twitter and Google +, people can help raise awareness for the currently incurable disease and to encourage others to participate in fund-raising walks, etc. Cystic Fibrosis affects the lungs, making it hard for the person suffering to breathe, thus making the "Great Strides" walk important on many levels.
A representative of My Identity Doctor suggested, "Another way to get involved is to encourage those suffering from the disease to wear medical ID jewelry in the form of medical ID bracelets or a customized medical ID necklace. By wearing steel medical jewelry that alerts others to the individual's disease, if an emergency occurs, doctors and other medical professionals can immediately diagnose and treat the individual correctly."
