I was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis when I was just 5 years old. Since then, I’ve faced the reality that I would confront challenges living with a genetic, life-shortening disease that primarily impacts my lungs. CF makes it difficult to breathe and fight infections, often leading to lung damage and respiratory issues. Every day is a battle, but I continue to fight because I know that we can make a difference.

There is currently no cure for CF, and far too many people are losing their battle at such a young age. While there have been lots of miraculous treatments discovered, like Trikafta. The journey ahead is still long, and the need for a generalised treatment and cure is more urgent than ever. That’s why, in addition to raising funds for CF research, I am also pursuing a career in medicine. I want to be part of the solution, using my experience and knowledge to help make a difference in the lives of others facing similar challenges.

By donating to my fundraising goal, you are helping to fund the groundbreaking research that brings us closer to that cure. Together, we can push science forward and give those of us with CF the future we deserve with endless possibilities! 

Will you join me in the fight to end cystic fibrosis?
