Our nephew Lucas is one of approximately 30,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis- a chronic disease that makes it difficult to breathe. Yes, breathe. Something many of us do automatically without thought.
This rare genetic disease causes the body to overproduce mucus in the lungs and digestive tract. Every year, we walk for them.
Will you join me and support my fundraising goal?
Real progress has been made thanks to the innovation supported by fundraisers like this one. But there is still no cure, and many lives are cut far too short (46 years life expectancy for those born in 2015-2019).
Thus, there's much work yet to be done. Our family will not stop striding until all those with cystic fibrosis have a cure.
Please support our cause!
Love,
Jessica, Terry, Emily, Lincoln, and our entire extended Gbur family on behalf of TEAM LUKE!
