Like many people, I learned about CF in high school biology and then never thought much about it again. That is until I met my husband, Jimmy, and my eyes were opened to the lifestyle of people who have struggled with CF their whole lives. I got involved in this fundraiser in hopes that I can raise money and help make a difference for those struggling with the disease, like Jimmy and his younger brother Matt, and in honor of those who CF has already taken too soon, like Jimmy's older brother, John.
There are approximately 30,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends and co-workers who struggle every day just to breathe. I walk for them and hope you will support me in my efforts.
Real progress has been made in the search for a cure, but the lives of people with CF are still cut far too short. There still is no cure for this devastating disease. By walking today, I am helping add tomorrows to the lives of people living with cystic fibrosis. Will you join me? Support me by making a donation to my Great Strides fundraising campaign today!
Great Strides is a fun, family-friendly event that raises awareness and support for people with CF and their families.
