Personal Image Help us find a cure for baby Virginia Blue! After a three year struggle and two heartbreaking miscarriages we were blessed on March 3, 2009 with our beautiful Virginia Blue. We have never been so happy in all our lives. She is the joy and happiness of our days. She lights up any room and could bring a smile to any face. She is nothing short of AMAZING! We love her so very much.

When Virginia Blue was 3 weeks old we got the worst news of our lives. Our Beautiful, long awaited daughter tested positive for CF. Nether of us have any family history of CF and were shocked and scared. After a week of crying and feeling overwhelmed we decided it was time to pull it together and fight for our daughter. We are beyond grateful to all of you for helping us work towards a cure for so many tiny angels suffering with this terrible disease.

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 2010 Redlands - Sylvan Park walk on 04/24/2010. Please help me meet my fund-raising goal of $9,000.00 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!
