Hello, my name is Britt and I am the Fiance to Hunter who has Cystic Fibrosis and who is extremely passionate in everything he does!
Hunter was diagnosed at 10 years old with Cystic Fibrosis and at the age of 4 he underwent heart surgery. Hunter has overcome so many challenges/ Obstacles and has never lost his kind Heart, his loving personality or his sense of humor.
Hunter and I have been together for 3 years now and is already considered as a step father to my three amazing children who he loves and they love him tremendously!
Hunter has a huge support system From Myself and the kids, To His huge family and his group of friends who all love him very much. He's very important to myself and them and we're always there to support him.
As you can see Hunter is loved by many and is a very special and loved individual. So that's why we need your help and support, with raising money for research and possibly, No hopefully one day a cure!
Someone who has Cf it's an very day struggle, from the mental health struggles, the taking medications and so many times a day, the amount of medication, the breathing problems and treatments and the just not feeling normal. But he's normal in his own beautiful and unique way.
That's why we need your help in raising money for people like Hunter and many other people who struggled with this on a day-to-day basis.
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.
