best case scenario is always just to last long enough for better treatment to be invented.
CF patients are strictly kept six feet apart to reduce the risk of cross-infection, as contracting bacterial infections from other CF
patients can be dangerous - even life-threatening. Stella is determined to follow the rules, and initially dislikes Will, who likes
to break the rules and take dangerous risks sometimes. Stella notices that Will isn't strictly following his treatment regimen and
eventually gets him to agree to do so.
Will and Stella begin to fall for each other and secretly go on their first date, staying only five feet apart, Stella explaining she's

and a fellow CF patient.
