Since as young as I can remember, my Uncle Donny has been my person. The person I am is influenced by things he's taught me, sacrifices he's made for me and spending (what I thought was) an endless amount of time with me.
He was forever there for me... until he wasn't able to be anymore.
On May 1st, 2020, I flew back to Massachusetts from California, where I would be spending the last week taking care of one of the most important people in my life. Hour after hour, for days on end, I would be administering hospice care until on May 7th, I watched my uncle take his last breath.
There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis. I got to watch my uncle reach 50 years of age, but too many people with CF die too young. I’m walking in hopes 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.
Will you help us end cystic fibrosis?
