My story

 

Hello Guys and Girlies,

My very best of friends, Jayne, Joanna, Lyndsey, Soraya and my sister Lizzie and Katy and I have decided to take part in the Womans Adidas Challenge in Hyde Park this September.

As most of you know 3 out of my 5 siblings including me, were diagnosed 10 years ago as carriers of Cystic Fibrosis. This means that our partners also have to be screened for Cystic Fibrosis before we decide to have any children.

Cystic fibrosis occurs because of a faulty gene called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator - or CFTR gene. Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder. This means that in order to develop the condition you need to inherit two cystic fibrosis genes, one from your mother and one from your father. If you inherit only one cystic fibrosis gene, you are called a carrier and do not have symptoms.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited condition. It affects organs in the body, particularly the lungs and digestive system, which become clogged with sticky mucus, making it difficult to breathe and digest food. Cystic fibrosis affects over 7,500 people in the UK and is most common in Caucasian people. People with cystic fibrosis have a shorter life expectancy, with the average being around 31 year.

There is currently no cure for Cystic fibrosis

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Jeans For Genes Campaign gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor us now!

Thank you & lots of love

Sarah, Lizzie, Katy, Jo, Soraya & Jayne xxxx
