Hi Family & Friends!
Guess what time it is? Yes, it's Great Strides season and we are actively raising money for Team Alec.
Team Alec has a new member and we couldn't be more thrilled. Alec, Anna, and Edison welcomed Bennett into the world in November. We are so excited to have another grandson.
We have been walking, advocating, educating, and volunteering with the CFF for 32 years. In that time we have witnessed Alec benefit from new drugs and treatments. In 1993 his life expectancy was 21. Today, more than 60% of CF patients are over 18 and are celebrating milestones they only used to dream about. For that, I say THANK YOU. The CF community would not be where it is without the generosity of our friends, family, and local community. You are the heroes of our story.
Our goal is to CURE CF and we are closer than we have ever been, but until we do, I will continue to ask for your support.
We would love for you to join our team, create one of your own, volunteer, or donate.

Team Alec appreciates any amount, no donation is too small.
CF is a genetic, life-shortening disease that devastates the lungs, pancreas, and other vital organs. CF makes it difficult to breathe and fight life-threatening infections, often leading to extensive lung damage and respiratory failure.
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.
