We lost my dad (65) after two years of his battle with IPF. He refused a lot of medical treatment and doctors visits over those years (though he was on oxygen, ofev, prednisone) and my heart breaks that perhaps we could have had many more good days together with more medical intervention. This disease is a horrible thief and I am so deeply devastated that it took his independence, his happiness, and now him. He was such a sincerely good and loving person and father and he deserved so much better.

I am so sorry to everyone affected by this disease, my whole heart goes out to you and your loved ones. No one deserves this. May you have so many good and happy days left together.
