Thank you to anyone who supported our efforts over the past two years of CF Walks! Maybel has had an amazing year of continuing to grow. Since our last walk, she has begun a new medication course that targets the route of CF instead of just relieving symptoms. She has grown so much and become such a fun and active toddler! Her sense of humor and her drive to entertain keeps life fun at all times. Maybel will turn 3 just before the walk this year. Last year Super Maybel loved running around at the walk sporting her warrior cape, I just know she is going to love being an ambassador this year.

Maybel has added such joy to our family and I am so proud to be her aunt. She is strong and happy and she is a fighter with two of the most amazing parents. But she, and all who live with CF, need your help. Developments and treatments are making great strides every day and it's fundraisers like this that help keep that progress going and bring a community of people together. Just in the past few years, there have been significant advancements in CF research and treatments 

There are approximately 30,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, and friends who struggle every day just to breathe. I walk for them. Will you join me and support my fundraising goal?

Real progress has been made for those who have CF, but there is still no cure for this devastating disease and many lives are cut far too short. We’ve come so far, but there’s still so much work to do. I will not stop striding until all those with cystic fibrosis have a cure. We will not leave anyone behind.  

Please support me!

We are at a pivotal moment in the history of cystic fibrosis and your support matters. With your help, we can invest our resources in research today, while raising funds for tomorrow, to ensure we have what it takes to reach the finish line. Together, we can make CF stand for Cure Found. Please help me reach my fundraising goal!
