As most of you know, our daughter Nicole has cystic fibrosis (CF).  Thanks to all the money raised from people like you and others over many decades, the CF Foundation has made tremendous progress toward a CURE!  Nicole has been able to flourish... she has her Master's degree in Social Work, she is married to the love of her life, Matt, and she is 31 years old and living life to the fullest.  Mary and I are so proud of Nicole and the challenges she has overcome and the dreams she has fulfilled. 
Although great strides have been made, there is currently no cure, and the mission of the CF Foundation is to find a CURE for all people with CF, no matter what their mutation is.  Nicole was not able to take part in the clinical trials for the miracle drug/modulator Trikafta because her lung damage was too severe, however, after she received her life-saving lung transplant, she has since been able to take Trikafta and it has remarkably helped her CF-related sinusitis and has allowed her pancreas to make insulin again!  Now that's what I call a miracle drug! 
I am committed to helping find a cure for cystic fibrosis and am raising funds to support the CT Chapter Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Annual Fund. Contributions to the Annual Fund provide important, unrestricted resources that help develop new treatments and pursue every opportunity for promising research that can lead to a cure. Please consider making a gift today. Your support will help make a difference for Nicole AND all those with CF and their families. Thank you so very much.
