My Breathe Team Story 💛
Fundraising for 2026 Bank of America Chicago Marathon
Sharon O'Donnell
Our world changed forever when our son Hunter was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis 💛 at just 8 days old. Since then, the past 10 years have been filled with daily physio, ongoing medication, hospital visits, and the constant fight to keep him as healthy and strong as possible. It hasn’t been easy, the weight of managing a lifelong condition has been heavy on us as a family but Hunter faces every challenge with courage beyond his years. 💛
Rather than let the hard days define us, I made a decision to turn something incredibly difficult into something positive. By raising money and awareness for the Cystic Fibrosis community 💛, I hope to give back to the charity that supports families like ours, funds vital research, and helps improve the lives of those living with this condition every single day.
Every donation, no matter how small, helps bring hope, better treatments, and one day, a cure. Thank you for supporting Hunter and all those bravely battling cystic fibrosis. 💛
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.
