Janet Garbarz

If you know me, you know I am passionate about people with Cystic Fibrosis.  I have spent over 36 years of my nursing career trying to make those CF patients as healthy as possible and am thrilled to see the progress that's been made.  That's not good enough, though.  We are so close to a treatment that could really change lives.  Please support my 'second family' by donating to my virtual walk.

There are approximately 30,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis, over 300 seen here at Cook. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, friends and co-workers who struggle every day just to breathe. For the first time, there are more over 18 than younger than 18!  I walk for them and hope you will support me in my efforts.

Real progress has been made in the search for a cure, but the lives of people with CF are still cut far too short. There still is no cure for this devastating disease. By walking today, I am helping add tomorrows to the lives of people living with cystic fibrosis. Will you join me? Support me by making a donation to my Great Strides fundraising campaign today!

Great Strides is a fun, family-friendly event that raises awareness and support for people with CF and their families.

Please support me!
