Bethany and Lucy... why WE walk... THE TWINS!

I could write here more about all the amazing meds, advances, and things the girls are able to do because of them. I'm not. Instead I want to thank all of our amazing family and friends who have helped us every step of the way. It has been so important to us to have the support of our family and friends. The girls will be GOING TO JUNIOR HIGH this year!!! We have reached a milestone with so many more to come.  I can't believe we are at the point in our lives the doctors warned us about when the twins were in the NICU... THREE PRE-TEEN GIRLS!!  I couldn't feel more blessed to be at this chaotic stage of life.

We don't have Cystic FIbrosis ruling our daily lives, and that is because of all your incredible support!! The girls are able to go to school, play soccer, swim, golf, playoutside, ride their bikes... If you were able to talk to a parent of a kid with CF from 25 years ago, this was unheard of. Life expectancy was childhood... not the life we are leading. We are so blessed to be able to benefit from the incredible CF advances of the last 25 years and hope the advance keep coming and the disease is not longer a sentence, but something to treat, live with, and thrive in spite of!

There are approximately 40,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends and co-workers who struggle every day just to breathe. We walk for them. Will you join us? All we need you to do to become a member of our team is click on the "Join our Team" button. From there you can make a donation and start your fundraising.

By becoming a member of our team and making a donation, you are joining a growing group of people committed to finding a cure for cystic fibrosis. Together, we are adding tomorrows to the lives of people living with CF by supporting the search for a cure.

Great Strides is a fun, family-friendly event that raises awareness and support for people with CF and their families.
