​I will be walking for my niece Lily! 

My Great Strides Story

My niece Lily was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis while in utero. Her first week was a tough one, ending up in the NICU due to a bowel obstruction which required irrigation and gradual progression back to feeding. Since then she has been nothing but a rock start and a beautiful inspiration to all that she meets. She has to take meds multiple times daily along with chest PT and breathing treatments, but she is the happiest and feistiest girls most of the time. She has had her fair share of illness especially during her 1st year of life including 1 trip to the PICU so far, but she has overcome every obstacle set in front of her. It breaks our heart every time she gets sick and our mission is to do everything in our power to make the road ahead of her as smooth as possible. The CF foundation has given us so much hope for her future with all of the advancements that have been made with treatments and medications. It's hard to imagine that this diagnosis was once a death sentence. Our goal is to help this organization raise as much money as possible to help not only Lily but the nearly 40,000 people in the United states with cystic fibrosis. Thank you so much for helping us fight for continuing advancements and hopefully one day a cure for CF.

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.
