Dear Family and Friends,
As many of you know Kendell our niece, was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis ("CF") in July of 2002 when she was six months old. Cystic Fibrosis is a genetic disease that creates thick mucus in the lungs and digestive tract. Cystic Fibrosis currently affects 30,0000 children in the US. Right now there is no cure, but we hope to change that soon.
Kendell is now a happy and active seven year old, due to the wonderful doctors who treat her, and let's not forget her awesome parents that take excellent care of her as well. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is continuously funding research and is closer than ever to finding a cure. They are very careful with the donations that they receive and have been voted the number health charity by the New York Times.
On May 30th, Team Kendell will be participating in the annual CF walk at the MTC Parkway in Ogden. This event is to raise money for research to help find a cure. I know that this past year has been tough on all of us financially, but if you can donate anything at all or if you would just like to walk with us, either would be greatly appreciated. If you are wanting to donate, please leave a comment and I will let you know how to get a hold of me, thank's.
