Lola and Ashton
My Great Strides Story
Both of my children have CF. Both of my children take dozens of pills every day. Both spend an hour a day hooked up to 2 machines to clear their lungs. What would you do if suddenly you lost an hour every day to keeping yourself alive? We must cure this insidious disease once and for ALL.
We have been walking since 2001 when Ashton was still in the NICU after his traumatic birth. Please join our team or make a donation to help us get closer to a cure for CF. I recently became the Chair of the local San Diego chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation because I am so committed and passionate about a cure.
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 walk for them.
You can support me!
By supporting my fundraising goal, you have an opportunity in your lifetime to be part of ending this disease. Please consider joining us and help make medical history.
