Team AJ was formed in 1997 in honor of my daughter, Amy, and my son, Jason, both were born with Cystic Fibrosis. They are not alone in their fight against this disease. There are now approximately 40,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends and co-workers who struggle every day just to breathe. Unfortunately, I am a firsthand witness to what it means to live with this disease. The daily routing is daunting, and quite honestly at times can be overwhelming. Fortunately, I also have the privilege to watch these two incredibly strong individuals live each day to its fullest, never letting this disease get them down. I am so proud of them!
Real progress has been made in therapies that treat the symptoms of CF, however there is still about 10% of the CF population that these therapies do not help. By donating today, you are helping to fund research that is improving the quality of lives of all people living with cystic fibrosis and eventually to find a cure!
Thank you for donating today!!
