My Xtreme Hike Story

I am proud to announce that I am hiking again for Viver's Givers in 2023. Last year was humbling and inspiring, and I am so thrilled to be at it again this year. As before, I'm hiking not just for my sweet little pal Vivien, but for all of my former CF home infusion patients. As a home infusion pharmacist, I managed the home IV therapies for lots of young adults discharging home after yet another CF exacerbation. I remember every single time, I would think, "I'm treating someone else's Viv." I always care about my patients, but I found myself unable to stop pulling for my CF patients in a real, emotional, and ongoing way.  Please help our Vivien, and everyone else's Vivien to conquer CF once and for all!

Let's make a real difference! Please help me raise money for a cause I truly believe in. There has been so much progress, but more needs to be done.

 There are approximately 30,000 Americans living with cystic fibrosis. They are moms, dads, sisters, brothers, daughters, sons, and friends who struggle every day just to breathe. I hike for them. Will you join me and support my fundraising goal?

Real progress has been made for those who have CF, but there is still no cure for this devastating disease and many lives are cut far too short. We’ve come so far, but there’s still so much work to do. I will not stop hiking until all those with cystic fibrosis have a cure. We will not leave anyone behind.

Please support me!

We are at a pivotal moment in the history of cystic fibrosis and your support matters. With your help, we can invest our resources in research today, while raising funds for tomorrow, to ensure we have what it takes to reach the finish line. Together, we can make CF stand for Cure Found. Please help me reach my fundraising goal by donating to my Xtreme Hike fundraising campaign today!
