Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

Zak and I are running for Nancy Thomas who is now 20 months old. She was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at the age of 3 weeks old.

 

Cystic Fibrosis affects 9000 young people in the UK, 1 in 25 of us are carriers and every child that is born in the UK is tested for it shortly after birth. Family and friends are united in helping to raise awareness and find a cure by fundraising, so We've joined together to raised money for our chosen charity, the Cystic Fibrosis Trust. They are the only charity in the UK dedicated to funding research into finding a cure for Cystic Fibrosis..a life limiting genetic disease that affects all the internal organs in the body and see's it sufferers on daily regimes of lots of medication and physio and inevitably transplant lists. 

 

Nancy is the most amazing child. She has the most beautiful eyes that stare into your soul and drink up all of your presence.

 

Many thousands of children with CF died in infancy  and Its only in the last 30 years that a child like Nancy born with this condition has been given the chance to live into adulthood because of the research into CF. 

 

 

 

Please help us help her and the 9000 other children and young people in the UK living with CF.
