Hello Family&Friends!
Colton loves fishing, hunting, playing sports, riding 4-wheelers, playing with friends, and spending time with family! When you look at Colton, you will see what appears to be a typical 8-year-old. What you won’t see are the hours of breathing/vest treatments, daily medication, throat cultures, blood draws, and many other tests.
Colton was diagnosed with CF in 2015 at just 10 days old. At that time the average life expectancy of an individual with CF was in the late 30’s. It is so hard to believe that was 8 years ago! In that time the CF Foundation has not stopped trying to find a cure, it is with generous donations that they discovered a gene modulator that has been life changing to a significant amount of people with CF. With this new medication life expectancy has increased to 50! As amazing as that is, I believe that there is still more that can be done and eventually a cure to find! I will not stop striding until all those with cystic fibrosis have a cure.
Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts!
Aaron, Laura, Landen, and Colton
