Samuel Sweeney is your cure for post-Derby depression. Read more about his story at the beginning of this post.
The featured star of this evening's Cardinal news and notes is Samuel Sweeney, who was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at the age of just 18 days old. CF is a life-shortening disease he will battle every day of his life, but a disease for which he has a chance to see a cure in his lifetime because of major progress in medical research.
His family will be taking 'Major Strides' for Samuel and every other local child battling cystic fibrosis at the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Walk at Louisville Slugger Field on May 16.
