Cody is a wonderful, fun-loving, young man who enjoys after-school activities, riding his skateboard and hanging out with his family and friends. At 1 week old, Cody was diagnosed with the life threatening disease cystic fibrosis. Cody takes more than thirty pills every day to keep his body healthy. In addition to pills, he takes two nebulizer treatments and receives 30 minutes of daily chest physical therapy. Cody and his family work throughout the year with his physicians at Children’s Hospital Boston to keep him as healthy as possible. Cody may have a disease that’s considered incurable but he does not let it get in the way of being a teenager. He lives life to the fullest and welcomes every new day as any other teenager does.
