Great Strides 2006
My Great Strides Story
Join our team and help add tomorrows!
It is that time of year again friends...time for the Cystic Fibrosis Great Strides Walk. This year there is not a walk in Schaumburg, so we decided to walk May 11th in Naperville. We would love to see you there to walk along side us to raise awareness to help find a cure for CF.
"As a family, we have been through many ups and downs. Kelly was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis in 2002. She was in and out of the hospital frequently while trying to balance being a wife and mother to three kids. In 2006 she began to get worse as her lung function was deteriorating. She was in the hospital months at a time. In December 2007 Kelly received a double lung transplant, which was a dream come true. Unfortunately, Kelly obtained many infections that took a toll on her body. On March 29, 2008 God took her home. Let's continue to raise awareness to help families like ours and fight to end this horrible disease."
