Welcome to Reid's Crew 2023!

Our grandson Reid was born with the genetic disease cystic fibrosis.  He does 1-2 hours of chest physical therapy treatments, inhales 4 nebulized medicines, and takes 20-30 pills per day.  He very rarely misses a  treatment and he has never missed an entire day of treatments.  CF is constantly at work trying to ruin his body so he has to work 365 days a year to defend it.  

The treatments that have been developed through the support of the CF Foundation are a wonderful thing.  They alleviate symptoms, prevent complications, increase the quality of life for patients and attempt to slow the progress of the disease.  But we don't want to just slow down this disease, we want to stop it.  The thing that can truly do that is a CURE.  We are asking for your donation to help fund the amazing research being done by the CF Foundation and find a cure for Reid as soon as possible.  That research paid off in a big way this year. Reid started taking Trikafta this past fall and the results were amazing. His lungs are much less clogged now. He's gained weight and is active in sports.

 Thank you so much for getting us that much closer to a real cure.

We have been involved in fundraising for the annual CFF Great Strides Walk since before he was born. This will be our fourteenth year helping to raise funds for research.  Please support us.  Your donation funds vital research being done by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation to cure this deadly disease. 

Thank you for donating and caring.
