Our CF Climb Story

Frankie & Sparky

It’s been a journey for our family since our youngest, Frankie, was diagnosed with CF seven years ago… Still can’t believe that a year later our son, Owen, was also diagnosed. Luckily, our family has been blessed with health, happiness and a lot of love from family and friends. We have NEVER felt alone in this journey.

Our kids have benefited greatly from medical advancements that have become available in the last three years and, as a result, the life expectancy of children with CF has risen dramatically to 42 years of age. There is growing optimism in the CF community that our loved ones will live to see a cure and lead a normal life that isn’t burdened by breathing treatments, compression vests, countless pills to digest, and frequent trips to the CF Care Clinic.

There are many ways to support our family… You can donate to the cause, keep our children in your prayers, or you can join us on October 26th at Sun Devil Stadium and help raise awareness.
