Romance and CF

Romance and CF

Who will want to take on a person with CF? That is the question many women born with the disease think about after high school.

Megan Bauer thought about it a lot. Until she met Alec. At 26 years old the University of Michigan graduate is happily in love. But until she found her prince, she found a lot of men who couldn't handle dating a person with CF.

Megan met Alec when she was 19 years old at the University of Michigan, and they have been together for 7 years. They are planning their June 2024 wedding. Megan works as a Customer Experience Associate at LinkedIn, and stays active in the CF community helping the Bonnell Foundation and the CF Foundation.

The Bonnell Foundation is grateful to Megan for her volunteering commitment to us, since 2019.
