Description

Emma Fontaine, once told she’d never have kids due to cystic fibrosis, is now thriving thanks to life-changing medication Trikafta—and she’s chasing her dream of becoming a mining engineer. After years of hiding her illness and battling isolation, she found power in running, boosting her lung capacity from the 60s to near 90s. Now she’s training for an Ironman and biking across Canada in under 60 days to fundraise for Cystic Fibrosis Canada. Follow her journey on Instagram @emmafontainee.
