Aurora's Lights

My neice Aurora is 13 years old. She was born with Cystic Fibrosis.
 
Each year we come together to walk in the Annapolis Great Strides walk. This year the walk is Saturday, June 4th at 11am at the Navy Stadium. We walk to raise extremely important money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. We also walk to support Aurora, Vanessa and Jeff!! There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about and pray for Aurora, and this walk is our way of showing them how much we want to help support them! We will never be able to walk in their shoes for a day or week, to experience the constant stress and worry, but we can walk FOR THEM on this one day of the year to show OUR SUPPORT!!
 
PLEASE JOIN ME IN WALKING WITH US THIS YEAR! AND IN DONATING ANY AMOUNT YOU CAN. EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS AND IS SO VERY APPRECIATED!! Thank you!!
 
 
What is Cystic Fibrosis? CF is an inherited, life-threatening disease with no cure YET. People with CF have two copies of a defective gene that causes the body to produce abnormally thick, sticky mucus, which clogs the lungs and can result in fatal lung infections. The mucus also obstructs the pancreas, causing difficulty with absorbing nutrients. In 1955 people born with CF were not expected to live long enough to attend elementary school. Today the average life expectancy for people with CF is 44. This is extraordinary progress BUT IT IS NOT ENOUGH! And it is NOT the reality we expect for our Aurora, please help us change these statistics!
