Chris is my hubby’s best friend. He is the nicest, kindest, funniest guy you will ever meet. He works hard to support a big family, never complains and is a huge KU fan. I understand the latter part of that sentence might not be a plus for some of you – but if you met him, you would not care about his college.
Chris and his wife Jennifer have a daughter (one of three) named Allison who has Cystic Fibrosis. She sweet, smart, lively and absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately you don’t get to pick the cards you are dealt and she is battling a disease that no little girl should even have to know about – let alone live with.
The CF Foundation is holding a walk event where basically the family ….walks….and we sponser them. My hubby is joining them in the walk (I would but work at that time). 90% of all the donations go to support research, care and education.
If you have a couple bucks – or a couple hundred…. thousand (hey, it could happen!!), take a minute to stop by the websites the family has set up. Anything would help.
This is a video page that the family created – it will take your breath away.
This is the link to the CF donation site for this particular family.
As always…. thank you!





Wow…what a tough life for such an energetic little girl. My best to them, and good for G for helping out.
