Clays was born Dec 4, 2002.
When he was just 3 months old he was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF)..

Clay must have therapy 3 to 4 times a day to loosen the thick mucous that coats his lungs.  This is done by lightly beating his back and chest for 30 minutes each therapy session.  This loosens the mucous so that he can cough it up.

Clay must also take medication everytime he eats.  Because of the CF, his body is unable to absorb the nutrients from the food he eats.  Without the medication, he would literally starve to death regardless of how much he eats.

Clay receives his medical care from Le Bonheur Children's Medical Center in Memphis, TN.  Clay must travel to Memphis every 3 months for check-ups.

As Clay gets older he will require more intensive and more costly treatments.
