How Wiley feels about your donation
My Great Strides Story
As many of you know Wiley was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at 10 days old.
Cystic fibrosis affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. The symptoms can vary from person to person. For Wiley, this has manifested in thick mucous that fills his throat and pancreatic insufficiency. To treat these he does 3 nebulizer treatments a day, chest physiotherapy daily, and takes 28 pills daily along with extra salt and vitamins. While we are thankful for these treatments, we pray for a day when they are no longer necessary for Wiley or anyone else with CF. We pray for a long, healthy, "normal" life for Wiley and the thousands of others living with CF. Your support helps us get one step closer to this becoming a reality.
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has made extraordinary progress — including fostering the development of more than a dozen CF treatments and increasing the median survival rate to 53—PRAISE THE LORD!! However, we are not done. These treatments are not a cure and they are not available to everyone with CF.
Your support makes a difference. Your prayers make 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.
