Megan's 2025 Hike Story
Megan Edwards
Megan Edwards
There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis and too many people with CF die young. I hiked for the first time in 2024 and hope to be able to do many, many more. I hike for Edward, my friend Leah's nephew, who was born with CF.
The hike was one of the hardest things I've ever done, both physically and mentally, but it can't be harder than living with CF. Meeting the CF hikers and family members was my favorite part. Learning about their unique journeys, accomplishments, and struggles too. I'm so grateful to be able to do this amazing challenge again.
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.
I appreciate your support tremendously! Let's cure CF together!
