You can reach your goal with these last minute fundraising tips!
1. Make a self donation. Your success starts with you!

2. Email your online letter out to all of your contacts – for one last fundraising push before the walk!

3. Imagine how much your team could raise if each of your walkers raised the minimum of $100 to receive the GREAT STRIDES t-shirt! Ask four people to donate $25 to reach that goal!


ok guys,
I'm sooo excited, thank you so much. Bring whoever with, people can register at the walk and just make a donation of any amount (really $5, $10, etc). Our Team colors are purple, white, and gray, but wear whatever! There are 3 teams total and there will be around 80 people total. We have a team of 25 and have raised $2,165! If we all reach our goals though, we will just under $4,000! So lets try to make $3,500 happen! :-) Then we have contributed almost one half of the Walk Site's Goal! We can do this! Can't wait to see everyone tomorrow (rain or shine)! Love you all! text or call me with ?s.
Love,
Cheriz

How Fostering and CF impact my work

I haven't been on my blog much.... I think that is because most of my blogging is currently been done on Health Union's Cystic-Fibrosis.com (here is link to all my posts on their site: https://cystic-fibrosis.com/members/cherizkunkel/ ). I decided last fall to step away from real estate after 3 years in the business. It was tough to say good-bye, especially since I had tripled my volume and business in the last year. However, I didn't have time to add any new clients; I kept saying, maybe next week, next month I can fit more work into my schedule. The truth is fostering takes a lot of time. We have between 5-8 monthly visits at the agency, 1 court ate a month, 2 home visits from the caseworker a month, plus e have 2-3 doctors/specialist appointments for our current kiddo. We have lots of paperwork we fill out, gas mile logs, receipts to add, and more! Our kiddo also participates in gymnastics and dance two nights a week. We go to a fosterparent support group with our kid ...

Packing it on and figuring it out!

Packing it on and figuring it out. I used the same pronoun to represent two different objects. It seems wrong to do that, but it leaves some mystery... did it work? are you curious? As you might have guessed the first "it" refers to my weight. Yep, I'm gaining weight. 105 lbs. yay! I'm sooo excited to show/tell Dr. B next week! Although, I do think its all in my legs. Now that I have been walking/jogging every night, I have noticed my legs have gotten quite a bit thicker (this is a good thing). I'm don't think my legs fall in the "chicken legs" category anymore. Now!                                                              ...

Why I Hope this Hospital Stay is Different

Typically, I've been very stable as an adult. I'm very lucky for that stability. However, 2018 started out nowhere near where I wanted. I was admitted mid March for a virus. We aren't sure what virus I had (every test came back negative). However, I had a consistent fever over 102 the entire 5 days I was in the hospital. Once I was fever free for 24 hours and I started eating better, they let me return home. I was excited to leave and get back to my everyday life. But, considering now a month later (and re-admitted), I think I should of just done a two week tune-up last month while I was in already. Live and learn. As you know (I'm sure) I have been trying to get my lung function back up to around 55-60%. 60% is my goal and it really is the highest my lung function can get, due to all the permanent scarring. I started Orkambi in October 2016. At that time it was the newest gene-modifier drug on market for CF patients (with my mutations).  After going on Orkambi I droppe...
