My Xtreme Hike Story

My Hike Story

There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis. I have lost one Brother (Jeffrey) and one sister (Jan-my profile picture) to CF.  I am participating in Xtreme Hike to help find a cure to end this disease for thousands of other people (friends and their families) who are 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. I know that Jeffrey and Jan would THANK you for you contribution!
