My Great Strides Story

Sicilee is a fun-loving 8 year old who was diagnosed at just 2 days old with Cystic Fibrosis.  She's had 4 sinus surgeries due to CF sinus disease, which has proven to be her toughest battle so far.  This year our girl started 2nd grade and has excelled despite numerous absences due to her CF.  Sicilee also participates in allstar cheerleading to help keep her active, and recently learned her back handspring. 

There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis. By participating in Great Strides, I am helping to end this disease for thousands of people impacted by CF.

Cystic fibrosis affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. The symptoms can vary from person to person, and as people with CF live longer than ever before, their disease can become more complicated, leading to serious health issues.  

The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has made extraordinary progress — including fostering the development of more than a dozen CF treatments — but these treatments are not a cure and not everyone can benefit from them. We must keep going.

Your support makes a difference.

By donating to my fundraising goal, you will help advance our mission for a cure for all. Please consider joining us and helping make CF stand for Cure Found.
