My CFF Gala Speech

Why do I have RunSickboyRun.com?

Blessed with Cystic Fibrosis and a positive attitude, it is my duty and passion to show the cystic fibrosis community that anything is possible through this blog that discusses the daily trials and triumphs that accompany not only life, but a CF life. RSBR is a hub for comfort, information, advice, encouragement and understanding. It is a place where no question is ignored, no accomplishment is too small, no goal is too big, and every comment is cherished.

My CFF Gala Speech

I'm not a fundraiser by nature, but I can certainly get up and share my story with passion. I was honored to be a part of a record breaking night for the Southern Arizona chapter of the CFF. They were able to raise over 400,000 dollars (the year before they raised around $175,000) and I was happy to be a part of that!

Everything I'm able to do with my family and in the community is ultimately all because of Him. To God be the glory!

Hahaha! Monica just asked if I saw your reply to my comment. She stated "you will laugh out loud!" I did, haha! Thanks for the compliment though Ronnie! I'll be sure and post more pics of my "sculpted body" more often. :)

Thank you from a mom with 2 children that are a part of this generation with CF. I am always thankful for the ones that came before them because they might not be here if it weren't for people like you and the ones that didn't make it. Your speech was so powerful. Many many blessings to you and your family.

That was amazing! I have heard you talk in person before and was highly impressed. But I must have had some onions around here too, because this talk brought tears to my eyes! Your love for Jesus, and your family is inspiring. You encourage us mama's of kiddos with CF in more ways than you can ever know!! THANK YOU!!

I praise God for you, your family and your heart for sharing the Good News of Christ with others in our community! Blessings~
