what it takes to put legends
our son caleb was born
with a rare form of cystic fibrosis.
it means every day mucus builds up on his lungs,
making it very hard for caleb to breathe.
but then a new medication was invented
that not only treated the symptoms of cystic fibrosis,
but targeted the disease.
the only problem was
is that it wasn't approved to be used in the united states.
but michael bennet changed that.
working with republicans,
michael bennet wrote a law
to get medicine and treatments
approved quicker.
caleb just celebrated 5 years being hospital-free.
he doesn't have to think about his disease every day.
as a mom, michael bennet gave me a future with my son.
uture
getting married, graduating from college.
those were dreams that we hoped for,
but now i see them as a reality.
i feel very fortunate to have somebody representing us
that cares so much.
i'm michael bennet,
and i'm proud to approve this message.
