I’m traveling today and as I’ve worked my way through the airport, I’ve noticed several strange looks in my direction. From people staring at my mask, to the man who intently watched me take enzymes with a snack, to the woman sitting nearby who just gave me a horrified side-eye as I spit sputum into a tissue.
Sometimes I forget that these things aren’t normal to everyone!
Do you have any funny “CF in public” stories? |
