I'm walking for a cure
It is truly personal!
My family watched my father Ricky bravely battle this disease before losing him last year. A decade before him we watch his mom suffer and ultimately was defeated by Pulmonary Fibrosis. At least two of her siblings also lost their lives to lung and pulmonary complications long before this disease was widely understood. A few years ago, our uncle was fortunate to receive a double lung transplant, which saved his life when he was struggling to breathe from severe pulmonary fibrosis. Sadly, many other extended family members have also been affected.
Because of this, this cause is deeply personal to all of us including our children.
The Tampa Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation Walk will take place on April 18th and we would love for you to support us in one of two ways:
• Join us in Tampa and walk with our team Inherited Strength
• Make a donation to help fund research and awareness efforts
You can join our team or donate here:

Every bit of support helps us move closer to better treatments—and hopefully a cure.
Thank you so much for your love, encouragement, and support. It truly means the world to our family.
