My Great Strides Story

For a little back story, Jemma was diagnosed with CF at 3 weeks old, a disease we didn't know much about; much less did we think we were carriers for. Jemma's first year of life was quite as whirlwind and she had many fights to get through including multiple surgical procedures. As she is 2.5 now and on different treatments as well as modulators she is doing much better even though the fight is not over. We are desperately hoping for a cure to be found soon. 

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