My Great Strides Story

Fundraising for Pittsburgh Great Strides 2026
Patricia Jageman
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.
Dylan has been lucky enough to have the life changing medicine called Trikafta! Recently it’s starting to show his Liver Enzymes have been elevated and the Doc’s have it in question. But! We won’t let it stop us from living our best life and in the mean time we will keep fighting this fight and raising much needed funds to help cure and provide more life changing medicine to all dealing with this condition. Join us and be the help we’re looking for!
