My Great Strides Story
At the age of 13, I was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF). After living for 13 years, I had to change the way I lived and add so many new things to my daily routine. When I was diagnosed, the doctors told me my life expectancy was 34 - something I will never forget. At the age of 31 (almost 32!) I have beaten so many odds and continue to fight to live past 34! Join me in my fight against CF by donating and/or walking with us at Great Strides!
There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis. By participating in Great Strides, I am helping to end this disease for thousands of people impacted by CF.
Cystic fibrosis affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. The symptoms can vary from person to person, and as people with CF live longer than ever before, their disease can become more complicated, leading to serious health issues.
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has made extraordinary progress — including fostering the development of more than a dozen CF treatments — but these treatments are not a cure and not everyone can benefit from them. We must keep going.
Your support makes a difference.
By donating to my fundraising goal, you will help advance our mission for a cure for all. Please consider joining us and helping make CF stand for Cure Found.
