Heather Trammell: CF and finding your voice

Life with CF is different for everyone. We have a lot of the same challenges, but we do grow with the disease differently. Heather Trammell, CF Mom to 7 year old Charlie is married to Christopher, (for 13 years now). Heather is a legal assistant in the compliance department at Credit Acceptance. Heather has so much CF Mom wisdom. I am glad to call her a friend.

In 2019 Heather became a member of the family advisory board at C.S.Motts Children’s Hospital in Ann Arbor, and is a Parent Family Partner through the CFLN with the CF clinic at Motts for just over a year.

Heather is also a mentor in The Bonnell Foundation's Hand in Hand mentoring program. Heather and her husband Christopher recently spoke at The Bonnell Foundation Night of Hope Gala. We were lucky to have them!
