For too long, cystic fibrosis, a rare, genetic disease, has robbed people of tomorrows – progressively limiting their ability to breathe and tragically shortening life. There are approximately 30,000 Americans living with CF. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends, and co-workers who struggle every day in the face of this devasting disease.
My son, Clayton, is now 22 and was diagnosed just before his third birthday. We have seen so much progress in CF research since we started and know that without much needed support we would not be where we are today with Clayton's health. Clayton just started the newest CF drug therapy, Trikafta, and we are so amazed at how this new drug has greatly improved his overall symptoms and health so far and hope it continues in the months and years to come. Clayton is currently working and thriving. He also just got engaged to his high school sweetheart, Sara. We are so blessed to have him this healthy right now. Please continue to support the CF Foundation.
I walk for them. Will you join me and support my Great Strides fundraising goal?
Real progress has been made for those who have CF, but there is still no cure for this devastating disease and many lives are cut far too short.
By walking with me in Great Strides, you can help accelerate the Foundation’s pursuit of new therapies and provide vital support to meet the needs of the CF community.
Please support me!
Your participation will help us get one step closer to ending this terrible disease. Let’s make CF stand for Cure Found.
