It has been a year since my Banks’ CF diagnosis. We have all learned so much through this life changing experience and are incredibly thankful that Banks has been so happy and healthy this year. He is an absolute trooper through his treatments and his parents have done an outstanding job navigating the complexities of life with CF.
The Great Strides fundraiser is a wonderful event to support CF Warriors and I am so humbled and thankful for all of you who supported our team last year. We ended up far exceeding our expectations and are hoping to do the same this year.
We will walk until there is a CURE for EVERYONE
Cystic Fibrosis Facts
Nearly 40,000 people in the United States have cystic fibrosis: a progressive, genetic disease that affects the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, and friends who face the sobering prospect of a shortened lifespan. I walk for them.
Working alongside the CF community, the CF Foundation has fostered the development of more than a dozen CF treatments and helped add decades of life for people with CF. Yet, many people with CF do not benefit from existing therapies. Our vision is a cure for every person with cystic fibrosis – a life free from the burden of this disease – and we will not leave anyone behind.
You can support Banks & all CF warriors!
You have an opportunity in your lifetime to be part of ending this disease. Please consider joining us and help make medical history.
