Kyrie was born with a genetic condition callled Cystic Fibrosis, it affects the lungs and digestive system and there is no cure. though there are many treatments to help those with CF to live semi-normal lives. The life expectancy of someone born with CF has doubled in the last 30 years. Despite this progress, many people with CF do not benefit from existing therapies either because their disease is too advanced or because their specific genetic mutations will not respond. Kyrie happens to be one of those who has rare mutations.
We walk for Kyrie and all of those affected with CF, for their present, and for their future.
