CF Podcast 146: Cystic Fibrosis and the Feeding Tube - Featuring Gary Reay

Meet Gary Reay - a 26 year old who grew up in Ireland with cystic fibrosis.    - He plays soccer and boxes - generally trying to get to the gym at least 4 days a week with his friends - and also loves music and DJing.    - After 19 years without an extended stay at the doctor's, Gary fell ill and was hospitalized for 6 weeks.  - During that time, he lost a great deal of weight - leading him to the decision to get a feeding tube.    - He uses his feeding tube every night and has seen a major change in his ability to retain weight and has much higher energy levels.    This podcast was made possible through an unrestricted educational grant from Genentech to the Boomer Esiason Foundation.
