Nathan's Crusade against Cystic Fibrosis!

Donation protected
My name is Nathan Sunderland, and I've spent my entire life in this world, on the crusade to fight against Cystic Fibrosis.

I was born 3 weeks early, on Sept 21, 2020 (I beat the pandemic heck yeah!!) and I came home to a loving family, who were eager to share this world with me, but my life changed dramatically when that phone call arrived that no parent wants to hear... I was born with Cystic Fibrosis.

I am sure the first questions that came to my loving parents minds are ... "Oh my gosh is my little boy going to die?" , "What quality of life will he have?", " How will we be able to cope with it all, the medical appointments, the treatments, the pills?"

Well I am here to say I am in it for the long haul and I am here to fight! 

Cystic Fibrosis causes various effects on my body, but mainly affects my digestive system and lungs with a build-up of thick sticky mucus. Therefore it makes it hard for me to digest food, grow, and even breath. I have been put on a regime of enzymes and medications to help reduce my symptoms of this rare genetic disease, but currently there is no cure, and it will be an uphill battle while I am on this lifelong medical crusade!

I am campaigning to gather funds to purchase a beneficial therapeutic device called BEMER. 

It's a Bio Electric Magnetic Energy Regulation device centred all around increasing cellular perfusion throughout the body, by maximizing cardiovascular functionality, by increasing blood flow at the capillary level.

How will that help me you may ask... well its all about the bloodflow...

You remember how Cystic Fibrosis makes things hard for me to digest food and even just to breath... well blood flow allows the body to naturally move oxygen and nutrients, and even waste through the body and gets them to where they need to be... therefore it is a therapy device that will help my body function to the best of its ability , and bring extended quality of life...and the best thing is its all natural just by using the patented BEMER pulse!

Check out the short video below to learn more about how BEMER works! 


I am looking to add the BEMER to aid in my care, as soon as i possible can, as it will help improve my quality of life right from the get go in my first year of life, and allow me to live  as every other kid should while growing up.. learning to walk, to ride a bike, to get into trouble, and even laugh till my sides hurt.

 I want to grow up and say I am not Cystic Fibrosis who happens to have Nathan. I am Nathan who has Cystic Fibrosis! This means I must fight! 

My dad is working at becoming a Licensed Paramedic in Alberta and has at least 2 more years of school to put under his belt, and my mom works from home running life skills development programs, for youth at risk and women in need, under her business called Back In Touch. This means we have to stretch our budget as far as possible each and every week.

It was at this point when we realized that we needed help from our community. One great way to assist in this crusade is to use the BEMER alongside the care provided to me at the Cystic Fibrosis Clinic at the Alberta Children's Hospital. We know that this device is not cheap and therefore we are turning to you for help

Any donations you can give would go a long way towards my crusade against Cystic Fibrosis.

We want to thank you in advance for your love and support, and all your thoughts and  prayers. We deeply appreciate everyone and will do everything in our power to give back where we can. Thank you once again for your support.
