My Great Strides Story

Our Family carries this cause close to the heart as we love and support our oldest grandchild, Evelyn. Diagnosed at just 3 weeks old, she is now an energetic and healthy 7 year old, but it is because of the CF foundation, Wisconsin Children's Hospital and a remarkable Pulmonology team that she has come this far. Her daily medications and treatment routines have become second nature. We look forward to that day when CF only stands for "Cure Found". 

There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis. By participating in Great Strides, I am helping to end this disease for thousands of people impacted by CF. 

Cystic fibrosis affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. The symptoms can vary from person to person, and as people with CF live longer than ever before, their disease can become more complicated, leading to serious health issues.  

The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has made extraordinary progress — including fostering the development of more than a dozen CF treatments — but these treatments are not a cure and not everyone can benefit from them. We must keep going.

Your support makes 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.
