My Team CF Story

There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis. By participating in Team CF, I am helping to end this disease for thousands of people 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.

I have personally seen how these new treatments can help patients. One of my favorite nuggets was diagnosed with CF shortly after birth, and thanks to all the research and work of the foundation, she has been able to live a healthy, normal life. I'm grateful for all the progress made, but I recognize there is still a way to go until there is a cure.

I'm honored to run the Chicago Marathon next October with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Please consider donating to my page to help find a cure for this horrible disease.
