“TAF really brought me a peace of mind.”

Marge has always found comfort in stories. She never starts her day without her Kindle and a warm cup of coffee. When she received her idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) diagnosis, though, the uncertainty made even the smallest routines feel difficult.

With the help of our Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Copay Assistance Program, Marge says she feels confident managing her treatment and staying connected to her family, no matter the miles between them.
