Last year at the Charleston, West Virginia walk I met the Dixon family.  Their sons Henry and Denver are living with cf.  I am in awe of how far their parents will travel to see doctors , of how many hours a week they spend on therapies, and of how dedicated they are to finding a cure for their boys and everyone living with cf.  

Thanks to CF Foundation-funded drugs and therapies, people with cf are able to live longer, more fulfilling lives.  However, these amazing drugs and therapies are not a cure and not everyone can take them. Many people with cf are still waiting for their miracle drug.  As I do every year,  I walk in honor of everyone fighting cf day to day.  I also walk in memory of Paul, Mitch, Leann, Shannon, Lea, Danny, and all of those for whom this important breakthrough did not come soon enough.

Will you join me in fighting CF by making a donation to my Great Strides efforts?
