Our daughter, Sydney Mae, is a fighter. Looking at her on the outside, you would never know she has cystic fibrosis- a progressive, genetic disease that affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. There are close to 40,000 people living with the disease in the U.S. Every day, Sydney works extremely hard to keep this disease at bay, requiring her to do treatments and take dozens of pills each day. There is currently not a cure for CF, but our family is dedicated to changing that. This year, we will be participating in Great Strides Pittsburgh, benefitting the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, in honor of Sydney. The money raised through Great Strides fuels life changing CF research and care, and they are relentless in their pursuit of a cure. We will not rest until there is a CURE and it can be said that Sydney “used to” have cystic fibrosis. Please consider making a donation or joining our team!
