DE SB227

I notice there's a discrepancy between your request and the document provided. The document is Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 59 (not SB227), which proclaims May 2016 as Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month in Delaware.

Here is the summary of the actual document provided:

• Proclaims May 2016 as Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month in Delaware
• Acknowledges that cystic fibrosis is an inherited chronic disease affecting approximately 30,000 children and adults in the United States, with about 1,000 new cases diagnosed annually
• Notes that more than 75% of patients are diagnosed by age two and more than 45% of the patient population is age 18 or older
• Recognizes advances in medical treatment that have extended median survival age to 37 years, compared to few children surviving to elementary school age in the 1950s
• Directs that a copy of the resolution be presented to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation
