For those who haven't made up their minds yet, an object lesson into what this disease is actually like might help in making that final decision: month old Brandie Peterson, the daughter of Mr and Mrs Kirk Peterson of West Jordan, at first glance seems a very normal little girl. She loves french fries; playing outside; animals, . Twenty-on- e bck, the inevitable question began an endless replay in their minds: "Why did this have to happen to us?" Cystic Fibrosis is passed on from adults in the form of a recessive gene. Genes are the structures in living cells that carry our genetic blueprints. If a gene carrying the recessive Cystic Fibrosis gene from one parent meets up with a dominant or normal gene from the other, the dominant gene overpowers it. If, however, it should match up with another recessive gene, the disease will affect the offspring. Doctors working on the case, first acted to dispell any guilt on the part of the parents. The chances such an event would take place are only one in four and, since both adults are perfectly healthy, no one knew it might happen. "We've long stopped feeling guilty about it," Brandie's mother Carrie explained. "But, now we face the question of whether or not to have any other children, since they would have the same 25 percent chance of getting it" The disease affects the lungs and digestive system. That is why it is so important to avoid colds or places where germs could be transmitted, laundries and buses being among the worst. A cold could dvelop into pneumonia that would scar the lungs and shorten her lifespan. It's effect on the digestive system, particularly the pancreas, is the reason Brandie must take enzymes. pills containing Ensymes are what helps break down food so the body can use it. For six months after the condition was diagnozed, Brandie did not leave the house. She has, as mentioned, come a long way and doctors are pleased with that progress. Most other children with disease aren't so lucky. Mucus can get trapped in the lungs and the resulting scar tissue makes the heart work harder and forces the child to cough a lot. Some others end up with club fingers or are extremely thin. "She's built up some resistance to cold and other germs," her added, "and we're that thinking by the time she's old mother enough to go to school we'll be able 1 :.

Because Brandie is doing so well and because of some promising news from medical researchers, the Petersons are hopeful a cure or treatment that will allow her to live a normal life may be found. .
