Trista & Kaprizov from the MN Wild
My Great Strides Story
Trista was diagnosed with Cystic Fibosis in 2009. Since then she has been doing high frequency vest therapies, many nebulized treatments and taking pancreatic enzymes when she eats to help absorb her food. Research has come so far because of all your donations. The last couple years has been amazing for Trista! She has been able to get rid of most of her medications and her vest. The only medications she is taking now is Trikafta (corrects the genetic defect of Cystic Fiborsis) which makes her lungs function more normally and her enzymes to help her absorb her food. Even though she has stopped all the rest of her therapies because of Trikafta she has maintained her highest lung function.
