Breathe Easy Eva;(

People are dying everyday from CF. Please continue to donate to the CFF towards a cure, and be sure to become an organ donor TODAY!! Eva was only 23 and passed away while waiting for a second double lung transplant, b/c her body rejected the first ones. I've said it before and I'll say it again...even though the life expectancy is 37, only 50% will actually make it to 37;(

Eva was a GREAT girl who was GREAT about spreading the word about Cystic Fibrosis. When Lil' Chris was first diagnosed, I remember searching the web and found many interviews of her with TV shows talking about CF. She even did a movie in Canada about CF. Click here to see the movie trailer. Click here to see the last post I did about Eva, and to see her saying "Goodbye"...so sad;(

Please, please, please donate today if you haven't already. You can see by the loss of another CFer how important it is to find a Cure NOW!!! Click here to donate and to see our new 2010 Great Strides commercial(it is at the bottom of my Great Strides page). Thank you sooooo much to my wonderful hubby for getting it all done today;) Thanks honey...I LOVE YOU!!
Did you know that by the year 2013, the CF Foundation will have 12 drugs in Phase 3 trials or to the FDA approval desk and 4 of those drugs are aimed at CURING THE BASIC DEFECT OF CF. This is all because of you and your donations! Thank you!
