My CF Climb Story

The picture on this page is from last year's Seattle CF StairClimb. My colleague, Tirza, and I are standing with Ron and Dianne Higgins, grandparents to Bradley, who represent Bradley's Bees. Bradley has cystic fibrosis and is not eligible to take a life-changing drug like Trikafta because of the mutations he has. We continue our fight for a cure for ALL people with CF, including Bradley, so that they can live long, fulfilling lives. Your donations help us get closer to that cure, and I am grateful for your support.

There is currently no cure for cystic fibrosis and too many people with CF die young. I’m climbing 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.  



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.
