My Great Strides Story

When I was 13 years old, I was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis. My life was changed forever.
Growing up, I had many stomach aches and didn't know what the cause was. When I was 13, I had nasal polyps which led to the discovery of my diagnosis. For the last 20 years, I have been able to live a full life thanks to the developments and advances made by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. They have found the best treatment plans for people with CF as well as appropriate medications to treat a variety of illnesses associated with CF. The CF Foundation has also helped with the advances in the medications we take which has significantly improved the quality of life for people with CF.
I am raising money to support the CF Foundation to continue to improve the quality of life for those with CF and get closer to finding a cure!

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?
