Empowering the Pulmonary Fibrosis Community
The Wescoe Foundation for Pulmonary Fibrosis empowers individuals living with Pulmonary Fibrosis (PF), along with their care partners and families, by providing compassionate support, trusted education, dedicated advocacy, and essential resources. Our vision is to unite the pulmonary fibrosis community, fostering connection, hope and strength to help everyone live with the highest possible quality of life.
What is PF?
Pulmonary fibrosis is a condition where the lungs gradually become scarred, causing the air sacs (alveoli) to be replaced by thick, stiff tissue. This scarring makes it increasingly difficult to breathe. Since pulmonary fibrosis can occur in over 200 different lung disorders, identifying the underlying cause is crucial, as treatment options vary depending on the type.
