My Great Strides Story
On January 20th 2023 my sweet Bodhi was born. After a couple days in the hospital in town and under 24 hours of being home he was flown to Sacred Heart. A long hard week of tests we found out he had Cystic Fibrosis. He has a huge team of loving family behind him. His big sweet smile and laughs light up our lives. We are excited to be apart of a supportive community to raise funds for a cure! We are excited for our second walk and all the years to follow!
I will be Representing my Son and The Cystic Fibrosis as I train for future events! This year and the following year I will also be Participating in the Cycle for Life. I hope to bring awareness to the CF community and raise all I can for those with CF.
With love,
Bodhi’s Brigade Ran by his Mother

#IWalkForBodhi
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.
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.
