There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis and too many people with CF die young. I'm walking to help change that reality for Gavin and people like him living with CF.
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. Gavin's been so lucky-his last hospitalization was in 2015! We were about to get a feeding tube-he was so frail and small-now he's well into his growth potential!
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. Gavin has dreams of computer game design-music composition and designing the games themselves. He shines when he's onstage or singing. His art skills are continually growing and evolving.
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. Right now-medications do keep his symptoms at bay. Imagine a life without vest therapy, nebulized medication, and 15+ pills a day.
