Walking for Miles and a cure!

Fundraising for Morristown Great Strides
Kate Walden
Friends and Family,
We are late to the party in our fundraising efforts, but once again are participating in the Great Strides Walk on May 3rd in support of our son, Miles, who has Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Miles is now in 6th grade and loves playing all sports, but in particular football and lacrosse and also likes to ski and play basketball in the winter, swim in the summer and hang out with his friends. He approaches each day with a smile on his face and takes an active role in his health making sure he does his breathing treatments and takes his medications (which takes approximately 2 hours out of each day). Most recently he is working to learn more about how to effectively condition his body with strength training, stretching, effective warm ups and cool downs and pre workout and post workout foods. We are truly so proud of him for doing his part and as parents, Marc and I are trying to support him as best we can and are so hopeful for the future!
So, that being said....Let’s cure cystic fibrosis - now is the time! The symptoms of CF can vary from person to person, and as people with CF live longer than ever before, their disease can become more complicated, leading to serious health issues. While progress has been made, we still lose precious lives to CF every day.
Please consider donating in support of Miles. There is no donation too small and it all makes a difference and will help accelerate the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s pursuit of new therapies and provide vital support to meet the needs of those with CF, including Miles!
Donating is easy and secure. Use the link at the bottom of the page to visit my personal fundraising page and follow the prompts to make a donation. Your support matters and we truly appreciate it!
From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
