My CF Cycle for Life Story

Fundraising for CF Cycle for Life Oregon
Susan Watterson
Hello ZOE fans!!! As you know there is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis and too many people with CF die young. I continue to fundraise by cycling to help change that reality!!
THIS year is VERY DIFFERENT for our family! Zoe is awaiting a double lung transplant. Her, Taylor and the Dogs have moving in with us and we need to be within 3 hours of University of Washington Medical Center at all times. Even though I am running a team, I won't be able to ride in the ride this year.
Instead:
1. I am committing to Team Zoe donors, who year after year show their support and love to ride 300 miles total this summer.
2. SPREADING THE WORD about being an ORGAN Donor. Not only you should put this on your driver's license, but also your family needs to know AND please register with https://www.donatelifenw.org/. or the Donate Life Group near you.
CF makes it difficult to breathe and fight life-threatening infections, often leading to extensive lung damage and respiratory failure. I ride and keep healthy in honor of those who can't. It's the least I can do!!
Every person born with cystic fibrosis is on a unique journey and experiences this challenging disease differently. While progress has been made, a long road lies ahead for far too many people fighting this terrible disease. We need a cure so that everyone with CF has a better chance to live a long, healthy life.
Will you help us end cystic fibrosis?
By donating to my fundraising goal, you have the power to advance the research and science needed to drive our shared dream forward – a cure for everyone with CF.
