Ray and I enjoyed our trip to Florida and to see NASA and all of the things we learned so much and just enjoyed ourselse. The hotel that was all about NASA and space. It was so cool and we got a bonus. There was a Hall of fame for fallen police officers right across the street from our hotel. That was totally awesome. It was a bonus and it was very inexpensive in it took up about an hour and a 1/2 of our time, so it was a little extra. I can't thank you enough for our trip. We both needed it. It was wonderful. Thank you again.

I was in the hospital for a bit of time for my CF, when I got out I was able to be gifted a take a breather family vacation trip. This was exactly what I and my family needed to take our minds off of me not being around for a bit while I was in the hospital. The foundation granted us a trip to Florida and we went to discovery cove and swim with dolphins and also did 3 days to a universal studios. We had such a good time and will have these memories for a lifetime. Was such a nice relaxing trip!

Take a Breather is truly an organization like no other that I’ve encountered. When we were nominated by our CF team I had no idea what to expect. Molly called us to get the ball rolling and tell me a bit about the organization. She was so thorough and warm throughout the entire process.

Our daughter was granted a “breather” of attending a Philadelphia Phillies game. Take a Breather went extra steps to make sure that our daughters had an amazing time, they really thought of everything!

We are so grateful to Take a Breather for this unforgettable experience and we can’t wait to be more involved in events and fundraisers for them in the future.

this foundation truly helped me get away from my everyday life back home. I got to "take a breather " from my cf and enjoy an amazing vacation. Molly was so kind and helped make this trip a breeze. Didn't have to worry about a single thing! She gave all the information that was needed and thought of every detail. Even provided with transportation to and from the airport which was great.
Key west was so beautiful! Everyone was so nice and gave us so many great places to try on the island. We explored for hours on end and enjoyed LOTS of food. The resort was PERFECT with great staff and a shuttle that made transportation very easy. Couldn't of asked for a better trip! Can't wait to someday go back there now!
Seriously so thankful for the opportunity i was provided with and i am incredibly thankful. Hard to even put into words! Take a breather thank you so much!

My daughter was born with Cystic Fibrosis, diagnosed with diabetes at 8 yrs old, and at 15 diagnosed with Embryonal Rhabdosarcoma. During a visit with her CF Team, they asked what her plans were when she finishes chemotherapy. My daughter said she wanted to see her best friend who moved to California a year before her diagnosis. The 2 girls met when they were 4 yrs old and were inseparable. Our CF Team contacted the Take a Breather Foundation and to our surprise they called me to grant my daughter her wish! Molly at Take a Breather contacted me and was so helpful in planning this trip and wanted to make it the most amazing memorable trip we have ever had. She wanted to give us a chance to exhale, let go of being at the hospital for the past year and a half and have fun. We had a great time and made memories that we will never forget. We got to spend time with some amazing people we love and missed dearly. I thank Take a Breather Foundation for granting us this amazing vacation!

I cannot express how thankful I am to the Take-A-Breather foundation! Living with Cystic Fibrosis is not an easy task and sometimes I forget that it is ok to take a step back and relax. My "Breather" to San Diego was a major reminder to just enjoy the little moments. Whether it was hanging out at the beach, amazing resort, or going for a hike, I got to just unwind and forget that I have CF for a little while. None of this would have been possible without the Take-A-Breather foundation. Molly was amazing and made this entire trip as stress free as possible. I will never forget the gift that they have given me and I am honored to be a participant. This is such a great organization and I'm sure they will continue to change the lives of many to come.

We cannot thank the Take a Breather Foundation enough for our breather! To say it was a great trip is an understatement. We had the time of our lives and did just what we were supposed to do. We took a breather from our busy schedule and just enjoyed each other. The trip really helped remind us of what life is all about, family and spending quality time with one another. Living with cystic fibrosis is not easy but having this time together to enjoy life was just what the doctor ordered! The foundation truly made an impact on our lives and it will never be forgotten. They were so easy to work with and very accommodating to our needs. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts. This trip meant the world to us!
Sincerely,
The Viox Family

It is hard to put into words how much Our Disney trip meant to our family. This is a wish Eli has had for almost 2 years and we were trying to make this happen. Thanks to Take A Breather Foundation Eli’s wish came true. The week at Disney and Give Kids The World Village was an experience we only dreamed of. This was a week full of love,understanding, family, and love. Our family was so touched by this experience we are now looking for ways to volunteer also. We thank everyone who had a part in making Eli’s trip come true and gave us all a chance to take a "Breather " from the daily routine that engulfs CF. We are forever grateful Eli, Lisa, and Josh
