Join our Kicking It with Mary Alice team!
It's that time of year again! This is our 18th year of fundraising for Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Over the years, you have helped our Great Strides family team raise over $250,000 to find a cure for this life-threatening disease! So many advancements in treatments and potential cures have your fingerprints written all over them and we are forever greatful! We would love for you to join our walk team and/or make a donation.
One of those exciting advancements is the drug Trikafta and Mary Alice has been taking this for nearly 2 year with amazing results. This is not a cure, but it does address the symptoms at a cellular level. We never dreamed when she was diagnosed that we would a drug this successful!!
Mary Alice is doing great and is thriving as an 11th grader and we're doing college tours! We are not ready for this, but she is! She works hard doing her treatments and taking her medications daily. She is a strong, disciplined and wise young lady, She loves playing lacrosse and realizes that this also keep her lungs strong. She is also active in her school orchestra playing violin and will be playing in the orchestra for her school play this spring. And she is totally in love with her doggie sister Izzy!
We hope you will be able to support the CF Cause again this year and join us on Sunday May 1st at the Tennessee Riverpark in Chattanooga at 1:00 for our Great Strides Walk to find a cure! Any donation helps and is greatly appreciated!!
Sincerely,
Bridget, Mike and Mary Alice
