Meet my daughter, Faith; the most extraordinary child I know. Faith is a precocious six year old that is often wise beyond her years. She likes to play with her best friends (her brother and sister) and her babydolls. We moved back to Florida this year and she has developed the new love of bodyboarding and the beach. She also started running with her Daddy this year and her lung health has improved greatly.Faith is very appropriately named in that she is the kind of Christian we all aspire to be. She is also a very dedicated home school student that works well above her grade level. Like any mother, I suppose, I could go on about her many fine qualities endlessly. All this, she does and is, in addition to the hours of breathing treatments, pills, and therapy she must endure everyday. Faith has Cystic Fibrosis. Please click on the thumbnail below and take four minutes to visit my montage to learn more about Faith and CF, and please foward this email to everyone in your address book.

The face of Cystic Fibrosis

GREAT STRIDES is the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's largest and most successful national fund-raising event. This year, I'm walking in the GREAT STRIDES walk at the 2009 Melbourne/Palm Bay - Front Street Park walk on 05/02/2009. Please help me meet my fund-raising goal of $3,000.00 by sponsoring me. Your generous gift will be used efficiently and effectively, as nearly 90 cents of every dollar of revenue raised is available for investment in vital CF programs to support research, care and education.

Making a donation is easy and secure! Just click the "Click to Donate" button on this page to go to make a donation that will be credited to my team. Any amount you can donate is greatly appreciated!

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a devastating genetic disease that affects tens of thousands of children and young adults in the United States. Research and care supported by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is making a huge difference in extending the quality of life for those with CF. However, we continue to lose precious lives to CF every day. That's why your help is needed now more than ever to ensure that a cure is found sooner - rather than later. To learn more about CF and the CF Foundation, visit www.cff.org.

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those with CF! Thank you for supporting the mission of the CF Foundation and GREAT STRIDES!
