Ashlyn Santos

Hello! Thank you for following my link. My name is Ashlyn Santos, I was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at 6 months of age. In my early teens my doctors told me there was a high chance I would not make it past high school. Here I am at 27 years old with a beautiful 1 year old baby girl! I’m a certified personal trainer and currently in the process of going back to school for the medical field. I will make it my biggest goal in life to teach my daughter to always chase her dreams and never let anything stop her from being her best self. 

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 personally want to Thank each and every one who makes a donation, no matter how big or small, on my team. LETS FIGHT CF!!💜
