My Great Strides Story
There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis. By participating in Great Strides, I am helping to end this disease for thousands of people impacted by CF.
Your support makes a difference.
I am participating in support of my best friends daughter. Laken was born July 2023 and shortly after birth went to the NICU. She was there for 4 days and released on a Monday afternoon. Her parents were so excited to be out of the hospital and begin their new life. On Friday they went to the pediatricians office for a weight check and received the news that there was a chance their baby girl had cystic fibrosis. They were in utter shock considering they didn't even know what CF was. Laken has proven to be so strong and such an inspiration to all those who meet her. She is the happiest baby. She loves everyone she meets, but thinks her dogs are the funniest. We know that a cure is so close and we will never stop fighting until cystic fibrosis is cured. With your help, we can get even closer!!
By donating to my fundraising goal, you will help advance our mission for a cure for all. Please consider joining us and helping make CF stand for Cure Found.
