I participate in Great Strides in honor of my grandson, Caleb. When he was diagnosed at just 3 weeks old, our world shifted in an instant. In that moment, I made a promise to him—a promise that I would keep showing up, keep walking, and keep fighting until a cure for cystic fibrosis is found!
This journey is deeply personal. Every step I take is for Caleb—for his future, for his strength, and for all the moments I dream of him experiencing. I walk because I want him to grow up without limits, to breathe easier, to chase his dreams, and to live a long, full, and healthy life.
Finding a cure isn’t just a hope—it’s a mission that lives in my heart every single day. Until that day comes, I will continue to stride, to advocate, and to stand alongside everyone fighting this disease. For Caleb, and for every family on this journey, I will never stop walking.
