My Story
I was diagnosed with CF when I was one month old and ever since my family and my self have been making it our top priority to keep me healthy. I take almost 30 pills per day and do breathing treatments to keep my lungs healthy. About 4 years ago my doctors allowed me to take a new drug called Tricafta. This allowed my lungs to clear up more than ever. Tricafta allowed me to keep on playing the sport I love and maintain my lung function over 120%. This drug has allowed me to live my life to the fullest and not be worried about my health 24/7. Thanks to the Cystic Fibrosis foundation funding Tricafta I am living my best life. But our work is not done and there a lot more patients with CF that this drug cannot help due to it targeting certain genes. We need your help to further research and find cure!We invite you to take part in Great Strides by joining our team. We promise, you belong here! This event promises to be a fun-filled day where you can help advance the care and research needed to cure cystic fibrosis. By walking with us, you’ll enjoy not only the natural camaraderie (yes, lots of laughter!), but the important impact we are making together.
While the CF Foundation has made incredible progress, not everyone with CF can benefit from existing therapies and we still need a cure. This will require time, funding, and persistence – but with you on our team – we are ready to go the distance.
Our team is committed to providing every person with CF the opportunity to live a long, healthy life. Will you join us?
