Welcome to 2026!  

A story 11 years in the making. 

2015 - Maddox was diagnosed when he was 5 days old. 
A few days later, we met his CF Team in Green Bay. 
A week later, we started enzymes with every feeding. 
18 months old - He started his vest treatments
5 years old - we were starting discussions for Nasal Polyp surgeries
6 years old - Maddox started his modulator - Trikafta and a new CF Chapter began! :)
9 years old - Maddox earned his Black Belt in Karate. 

We tackle every day with renewed sense of positive energy when we see him smile, master his karate forms, and run the routes in flag football. We are thankful that we were able to work his CF team right away to learn about it and to give him the tools he needs to grow up big and strong.

Our goal has been and will always be to have him be as 'normal' as a little dude can be; scrap his knees, hang with his friends, play video games and enjoy being a kid. There have been so many leaps and bounds to help find a cure for CF that we are so optimistic that he will have as close to a normal life, medically, as the rest of us.

However, there is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis. 
That is why we come together every year, to kick CF to the curb. 

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.  

Will you help us end cystic fibrosis?
