Jessica and Keith Angus

 Our son Gavin, was born in June 2010. At just 6 days old he was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis. CF is a genetic disease that causes sticky mucous build up throughout the entire body causing frequent lung infections, several GI issues, liver problems, and CF related diabetes, as well as other issues. Gavin takes over a dozen medications daily--some of which he takes 3-4 times a day. He also spends several hours a day doing breathing treatments and wearing a special vest to help keep the mucous from building up in his lungs. There is currently no cure for CF and the median life expectancy when Gavin was born in 2010 is 37 years old. This number is far too young, and quite frankly, the majority of people loosing their battles daily are much younger. Research is getting closer to finding the answer thanks to all of your donations. The CFF gets no federal funding and the research is funded by your donations!!  Please help us make CF stand for Cure Found!

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.
