As one of three siblings battling Cystic Fibrosis, our journey is not just about survival; it's about resilience, hope, and the unwavering belief that one day CF will stand for Cure Found.
My brother Ben, my sister Emma, and I face the daily challenges that CF presents with courage and determination. From the relentless attacks on our lungs to the constant struggle with pancreatic issues, every day brings its own set of hurdles. But amidst the trials, we find strength in each other and in the support of our family and community.
While there's currently no cure for CF, participating in Great Strides gives us a powerful way to contribute to the fight against this debilitating illness. It's not just about us; it's about the thousands of individuals and families who are impacted by CF every single day.
The progress made by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is remarkable, and our lives would not be the same without the development of these treatments. Yet, none of these treatments are a cure, and many still do not have access to them. Our journey is far from over, and we need your support to keep pushing forward.
Your donation is not just a contribution; it's hope. It fuels research, supports advocacy, and brings us one step closer to a world where CF stands not for Cystic Fibrosis, but for Cure Found.
Together, let's make a difference. Join us in our quest for a cure and help us rewrite the story of Cystic Fibrosis. Thank you for your generosity and for standing with us in this fight.
