Monday, 29 June, 2026
In this episode of ‘Journeys Through Pulmonary Fibrosis’, host Ilaria Galetti is joined by Ruth Ajayi, who is living with systemic sclerosis, and a rheumatologist Dr Cosimo Bruni, to explore the impact of this rare autoimmune condition on lung health. Together, they discuss the often complex and emotional path to diagnosis, the challenge of navigating care across multiple medical specialties, and the realities of adapting to life with a chronic disease. Through both personal and clinical perspectives, the conversation highlights the importance of early detection in managing progressive lung scarring, and how a strong partnership between patients and healthcare professionals can help individuals navigate change and find a new sense of normal.
