Hello everyone! I need your help! Let’s make sure everyone can benefit from healthy lungs.

As many of you know, our son Everett (aka Slim) was diagnosed at a very young age with moderate to severe asthma. He has suffered through countless upper respiratory infections in his short life that have required hospitalization. His mom and I struggled to find a physician who could establish a solid asthma action plan but fingers crossed, we are in good hands now!

Everett is our extroverted child who loves his twin sister, basketball, swimming, exploring, meeting new friends at the park, driving me and the family crazy, hip hop dancing, tumbling and is a Hawkeyes fan. He has spent a lot of time on the sidelines watching his friends get to play while he has to sit out due to illness and asthma flare ups. We finally have hope after getting connected to two amazing specialists at Boys Town. Because so many families have stories like Everett's, I participate in this event for people like him. He's my dude. :)
