Kirsten Michelle Cillis’ project, Terminally Chill, is a short-form web series consisting of ten 15-minute episodes that aims to examine terminal illness through a comedic lens to provide refreshing new representation of the Cystic Fibrosis community. The series centers on Kirsten, a millennial stand-up comedian with cystic fibrosis as she juggles love, work, and her terminal illness with her whacky group of friends.
