Dear Friends & Family~
Well, can you believe that its been a year already since we started our 1st fundraising effort for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Last year most of you helped us reach an AMAZING goal, which we actually exceeded. We set a goal to raise $5,000 for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and ended up raising over $25,000! We are truly indebted to you all for helping us accomplish that. This year we have increased our goal to $30,000, but we need your help to see it though.
As most of you know by now, our daughter Faith Nicole, was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) on December 3, 2003-at just 3 weeks old. Since that day our family has slowly and carefully adjusted to living with this disease. Living with a chronic illness is harder than we could have ever imagined, but with the grace of God we get through it day by day with an amazing joy in our hearts.
For those of you who dont know what CF is, it is a life shortening genetic disease that effects about 30,000 adults and children in the U.S. There are about 2,500 babies born every year with CF. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF) is the leading organization in research for CF, and the search for a cure. Faith is currently going to one of their CF clinics at Childrens Hospital that is funded by the CFF. They have helped make living life easier and better for people with CF. Every year researchers come closer and closer to finding a cure for CF. Already amazing progress has been made in developing new medicines, better antibiotics, and alternative treatments. Within the last 30 years, the average life expectancy doubled, and today it is around 32 years old. This is all wonderful news, however, it is just not good enough for me.
I want a cure found!
There is SO much more work and research that needs to be done. That is why we are asking you to sponsor us once again in the Great Strides Walk-a-thon. Ninety-four cents of every dollar raised goes directly to medical research. Any amount is appreciated and every dollar donated brings Faith one step closer to being cured.
If you are able to help, please make your tax deductible donation out to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and mail it to 9850 Settle Ct. Santee, CA 92071 on or before May 15th. This year the walk will be on May 21st at De Anza Cove. If you would be interested in joining us in walking you can email Steve at stevek@ultraboats.com.
Faith has had a wonderful, amazing, blessed 1st year of her life. We are believing God for many years that are just as rewarding and blessed as the last one has been. She has made Great Strides herself in her weight gain and overall health. She has always had perfectly clear lungs and has been the picture of health for most of the year. We know with your help and prayers that the next year will be just as blessed for her and our family.
ThankYou from the bottom of our hearts.
Steve, Anja, Devan, Cameron, Nathan, and Faith Khoma
