Mother's Day Tea, You are Invited! May 9th - Mother's Day is soon approaching. Traditionally, mothers look forward to spending this day with their children. Every Mother's Day takes on a special meaning for the mother of the CF child. It is a time to be thankful that they can share the day with their children. It is also a time to pray that they will spend many more Mother's Days together! Your donation is offering hope to the tens of thousands of patients and their families who live with this disease every day. Your gift will be invested in the wisest way possible -- to save lives.

To learn more about Mother's Day tea, please visit the CF website.

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is an inherited chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system of about 30,000 children and adults in the US.  A defective gene and its protein product cause the body to produce unusually thick, sticky mucus that: clogs the lungs and leads to life threatening lung infections; and obstructs the pancrease and stops natural enzymes from helping the body break down and absorb food.  Advances in treating CF have come a long way and life expectancy has climbed into the 30s and 40s.  Good news indeed, but we still need a cure!
