Under the title “With a vision of Unlimited Breath for 2025”, Health Today magazine hosts in its March 2025 issue an extensive and substantial interview with the President of the Panhellenic Cystic Fibrosis Association, Anna Spinou.

Through personal experience and institutional documentation, our President highlights:

• The main challenges faced by patients with Cystic Fibrosis in Greece,
• The significant advances in recent years in access to innovative treatments,
• The work and role of the Association on issues such as:
  ➤ Strengthening Cystic Fibrosis Centres
  ➤ Access to treatments and medicines
  ➤ Lung transplantation and organ donation
  ➤ Psychosocial support
  ➤ Community awareness and information

In a direct and authentic way, Anna Spinou conveys the human dimension of the struggle and the belief in the power of “together”: “Because even in the most difficult moments, when everything seems to be a dead end, there is hope. And when we join our voices and our forces, we can turn that hope into action, into change, into action for life. This struggle is not over. As long as there is need, as long as there is even one patient waiting…”

We would like to thank journalist Flora Kassaveti for the excellent coverage of the interview. The voice of patients needs people who convey it with respect, sensitivity and responsibility – and that makes a difference.
