My Great Strides Story

Jessalyn Sutton

Layla was diagnosed at 1 week old with CF. She does daily treatments which she is already a rockstar at, she's had surgery at just one day old that she conquered, and still this fight will be lifelong. We know what ahead of her will be nothing short of amazing but she will have to fight everyday for it.



There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis and too many people with CF die young. I'm walking to help change that reality.



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.
