My CF Climb Story

Sweet little Tripp was diagnosed with CF just a few short days after his arrival into this world. We are so thankful to the amazing doctors, nurses, and all the team members at CHOP who are helping us learn more about CF and what Tripps life will look like. We are also extremely appreciative to all of our family and friends who have and continue to be our support system on this journey. 

Nearly 40,000 people in the United States have cystic fibrosis: a progressive, genetic disease that affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, and friends who face the sobering prospect of a shortened lifespan. I climb for them.

Working alongside the CF community, the CF Foundation has fostered the development of more than a dozen CF treatments and helped add decades of life for people with CF. Yet, many people with CF do not benefit from existing therapies. Our vision is a cure for every person with cystic fibrosis – a life free from the burden of this disease – and we will not leave anyone behind.
