Ep213: The Doc Told Her Parents She Wouldn't Make It Past 12yrs Old

from Podvan Podcast with Rabbit · host Podvan Media

She was given a "use by date" of 12 years old.In this episode I sit down with Tayla to chat about the reality of living with Cystic Fibrosis. (I had no idea what it really was) We get into the "invisible" struggles that you'd never see just by looking at her, the time her sweat turned into actual salt crystals in her soccer gear (wild), and the groundbreaking drug trial that changed her life right when things were looking their worst. Plus, we bond over my theory that humans are basically just used cars waiting for a mechanic, and she teaches me that sometimes, a dark sense of humour is the best survival mechanism you can have.You can support Tayla's fundraising efforts here: https://www.breakasweat.com.au/tayla-purves And if you enjoy this episode, feel free to leave a comment - or maybe rate the podcast if you haven't done so yet?
