Hazel Anne (pictured above) is my beautiful niece! Hazel was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at 3 weeks of age. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic, progressive disease that affects the lungs and pancreas. It causes excess mucus production which creates an increased risk for lung infections and illnesses. She has 30 minutes of breathing treatments 3-4 times daily and requires medication every time she eats.
Hazel's mom, my sister and best friend, Julie, made it her passion to raise awareness and funds for this rare disease to hopefully one day find a cure. She passed away in September 2018 after a tragic accident. I want to continue to support her passion.
Please consider supporting Hazel and her fight! Every dollar makes a difference!
