Our Great Strides Story 

At 10 days old, our Lu was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis. Cystic Fibrosis (CF), is a rare, genetic, life-shortening disease that impacts every organ in the body and makes it difficult to breathe.

Lucy is a strong little girl who is going to leave a strong mark on this world. After the initial diagnosis, I questioned A LOT. She doesn’t look “sick”.. are we sure you’re talking about the right baby? Why my baby? What even is CF? It still may not make sense but we aren't going to let CF define her. I am truly inspired by her strength with the day-to-day she has been dealt. From the multiple daily chest percussion therapy, to the enzymes and meds before each meal, she does it without a fuss. 

Thanks to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, many advancements have been made in making the lives of those with CF more manageable. After learning of all the time, advocating, fundraising and research that made these advancements possible, I was truly overcome with gratitude.

It’s OUR turn. I truly feel led to do my part and help pave the way for my little Lu and all others with CF.

With supporters like you by our side, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation can continue to lead the way in the fight against CF.
