Our daughter Quinn was born in June 2024. When she was two weeks, while in the pediatrician’s office, we were given the devastating news that her newborn screen came back positive for CF and our lives changed forever.
Quinn has had a rough start but has benefited greatly from being able to take Trikafta. She may be small, but she is Mighty. We are blessed with an amazing village of family and friends. We know medicine has come so far, but we will not take our foot off the gas. We are grateful that she is part of the 90% of people with CF that are eligible for modulators. As amazing as Trikafta has been for Quinn, it is still not a cure.
We are walking to change that. We are walking to find a cure for all people with CF, not just our Mighty Quinn.
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 distress.
