My name is Mike and I am a gentleman living with CF. I am not as young as I used to be and trying to age gracefully. As we all get older our needs change but especially for those of us living with CF. There are many more tests, medications and up keep that need to be done. With the Bonnell Foundation’s help I was not forced to have to cut back on any of these needs. Life is not always easy but with people like you and what you do for others – you make it easier. THANK YOU, TRULY, THANK YOU!
