Hadley Jean's Story

Hadley was born on February 28th, 2023. She had a rough start and was admitted into the NCIU for breathing issues, also she was very little. She then got released to go home after a short time in the hospital. We went to her Pediatric Doctor regularly for weight checks. I will never forget the day Mary called us after they did her metabolic tests to tell us what they found. She told me Hadley had two mutations. I had no idea what she was saying. Turns out Our Princess got Diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis. After long talks with family and friends the news never really sank in. Today, we're choosing to stay positive thru this unknown. We will look at this as an opportunity to grow and come together for Hadley. This is the journey that will make us stronger.

My Great Strides Story

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.

Working alongside the CF community, the CF Foundation has fostered the development of more than a dozen CF treatments and helped add decades of life for people with CF. Yet, many people with CF do not benefit from existing therapies. Our vision is a cure for every person with cystic fibrosis – a life free from the burden of this disease – and we will not leave anyone behind.
