Max was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis when he was 10 days old.  he went from a healthy 6lb baby to a very fragile 5lb baby very quickly.  when the dr called and told me they needed to speak to me in person, I knew what was coming.  I knew I was a carrier for CF  I knew Brian was too.  but we had 3 healthy kids already and I knew there was a 75% chance that a new baby would be born healthy as well.  75% are pretty great odds.  Unfortunately Max wasn’t as lucky as my other 3 children.  When he was 10 days old he started with medications.  

This beautiful boy is the light of my life.  I need your help to make his life a long and healthy one.  

There are approximately 30,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends and co-workers who struggle every day just to breathe. I walk for them and hope you will support me in my efforts.

Real progress has been made in the search for a cure, but the lives of people with CF are still cut far too short. There still is no cure for this devastating disease. By walking today, I am helping add tomorrows to the lives of people living with cystic fibrosis. Will you join me? Support me by making a donation to my Great Strides fundraising campaign today!

Great Strides is a fun, family-friendly event that raises awareness and support for people with CF and their families.
