This answer is taken directly from WebMD:
What is cystic fibrosis?

Cystic fibrosis is a disease that causes mucus in the body to become thick, dry, and sticky. This glue-like mucus builds up and causes problems in many of the body's organs, especially the lungs and the pancreas. People who have cystic fibrosis can have serious breathing problems and lung disease. They can also have problems with nutrition, digestion, growth, and development. There is no cure for cystic fibrosis and the disease generally gets worse over time.

The life expectancy for people with cystic fibrosis has been steadily increasing over the past 40 years. On average, people who have cystic fibrosis live into their mid-30s, although new treatments are making it possible for some people to live into their 40s and longer.
