Andrew and Cece’s Army
Our superhero, Andrew was born November 2013 with an intestinal blockage that required surgery immediately after delivery. As he recovered, we learned that Andrew has two copies of the df508 mutation and has cystic fibrosis. After 12 weeks in the NICU and two intestinal surgeries, Andrew is growing and thriving. He loves cars (and trains, playing outside, and playing with superheroes and Legos. Most days you would never know that he is sick, but he works hard doing his breathing treatments and taking his medicines every day to stay as healthy as possible!
Cecilia, Our newest CF Fighter, had a much easier start to her life with CF. We work hard to keep her as healthy as possible!! She gives great snuggles and loves to laugh and play with her big brother and sister! She loves Me-me (Mickey Mouse) and Go (Frozen).
We are hopeful that through funding for continued research, Andrew and others with CF will be able to live a long and healthy life!
Please join us in raising money for a cure for CF.
