Raising Awareness – JP’s Story
Thanks to JP O’Sullivan and The Kerryman for their help raising awareness of lung fibrosis, lung transplantation, and the Irish Lung Fibrosis Association (ILFA) in a recent article by Tadhg Evans. JP O’Sullivan, his family, friends and community have been wonderful supporters of ILFA over the years and we are so grateful to them for their tireless fundraising and support.
