“This charity is really close to my heart since my son Antoine has this disease. He was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis when he was six weeks old,” Aupry said. “Five years ago, I started speaking for CF on behalf of health partners, and I’ve also participated in UIF8BMLUP.BLF$ZTUJD'JCSPTJT)JTUPSZ*N raising money from this event for that walk.”
