Landyn's Lions

This is Landyn and he is 6 years old now. When he was a little over a month old, he was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis.

It's a genetic disease that affects 25% of parents (both carriers) that have kids. It's a mucus buildup around his lungs and pancreas making it harder for him to breathe and process foods.

He is doing treatments now and will continue to do them for the rest of his life. He is doing well with the treatments and takes Enzymes to help process food along with using a vest to help loosen the mucus in his lungs. Luckily, his lungs have been clear and he hasn't been dealing with any breathing problems.

Landyn has a big sister, Sierra, (10 ) that doesn't have CF. She loves Landyn so much and adores being a big sister! She loves making him laugh, smile, and is teaching him something new everyday!

This will be the fifth year doing the walk and we all look forward to it every year! It is so inspirational to see everyone there and to know we're not alone. We'd love to see you there on May 14h! Come by and say hello.

Please help us by joining our team and fighting for this little boy along with others. Help with donations that go towards research to find a cure at the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. We will also be selling team shirts in April where all the proceeds will also go to the CF Foundation. Free to sign up as a walker or virtual walker. You can walk, stay around the booths and cheer us on, or if you can't make it; you can still sign up. Help with donations. Share Landyn's story with family, friends, co-workers, neighbors, anyone from church, anyone you can think of.

It's a silent disease, but we know, Landyn is a fighter. We want him along with others to live as long as they can without CF. Help us find a cure please.
