Session Format
Panel
Description
Balancing life with CF can involve both traditional and non-traditional career paths. Some people living with CF choose to work full-time, but for others, working part-time is a better option, especially with the growing popularity of freelance work and demand of temporary positions in the job market. In this panel, you'll hear from various adults with CF who have walked these paths. How do you talk to your employer and colleagues about CF? How do you balance a job and CF in everyday life?
Session Objectives
- Learn how others have managed daily CF routines with balancing a job and family/friends.
- Discuss the differences of traditional and non-traditional jobs while living with CF.
- Describe the pros and cons of telling your employer and/or colleagues that you have CF.
