URGENT: MEDICAL EMERGENCY 🚨
My nebulizer just broke, and as someone living with Cystic Fibrosis, I cannot breathe properly without it. This machine is my lifeline for daily treatments.
A replacement costs $300, which I urgently need to raise to get back on my treatment plan. Every hour without it is a risk to my lung health.
If you can donate even a small amount or share this post, it would mean the world to me.

When I was a child around 1980, my mother was camp nurse at an Easter Seals camp for ‘disabled children’, so I attended a cystic fibrosis camp despite not having the disease.

At the time, life expectancy with CF was under 20, and for two weeks the regimen that allowed even that was part of my day. As I moved through high school and into young adulthood it was a sadness to think that those kids had probably all died.

But then I got caught up on the effectiveness of treatments being pioneered and realized that thanks to research supported by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation life expectancy had been slowly extended to the point that most of my cabin-mates are probably still alive today.

I encourage everyone to support the organization as you are able, and stop helping to elect awful ignorant numpties who value their ideologies ahead of the lives of sick children.
