Family Disease Strikes Patterson Family in North Dakota
A North Dakota farm family faces a grim future as cystic fibrosis claims three children and threatens two more. Richard and Betty Ann Patterson, ages 9 and 6, battle the congenital lung and pancreas condition, while siblings Virgenis, Judy, and Donna Mae have already died from it. The others show only mild signs, with the family receiving some welfare help and keeping lessons at home as cold weather worsens their condition. Richard says he is living on borrowed time.
