These are the true Heroes
“A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.”

Somer Love
My name is Somer Love, thank you for visiting Love To Breathe® “The goal isn’t to live forever, but to create something that will”-Chuck Palahniuk
Love to Breathe® was established in 2001 so I could give hope and positive energy to the Cystic Fibrosis community, especially to the families with newly diagnosed children. I believe it is important to educate and raise awareness about CF and spread Love whenever and wherever I can. I want to change the world!
I try to live each day to the fullest by keeping my hopes high, and dreams big!! I am 40 years old living with Cystic Fibrosis, and I am an active advocate in the CF community. Being diagnosed at 11 months old I was unable to make my own decisions.
However, I am fortunate enough to have fabulous parents who chose to help fight my disease. When I was old enough I adopted my parents philosophy and joined the fight. This is my fight…
Love To Breathe…
One of my many passions in life is painting and living in the moment. It’s important to me to make every breath count, this is the best way I think anyone can live life.
When I am painting it seems to me I am doing just that. I have sent my paintings all over the US for CF Fundraisers to help raise money for Cystic Fibrosis. If you have an event coming up contact me…
I would love to help in any way I can. Breathe out Love! Xo
The FACTS…
Cystic Fibrosis is an inherited chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system of about 30,000 children and young adults in the United States (70,000 worldwide).
A defective gene and its protein product cause the body to produce unusually thick sticky mucus. All of this information and more can be found at http://www.cff.org/AboutCF/.
“65 Roses” is what some children with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) call their disease because the words are much easier to pronounce.
