A decorative newsprint graphic.

Dylan Mortimer

“The gratitude outweighs the pain,”

Dylan Mortimer has received two double lung transplants in just two years. Diagnosed with an unknown illness at birth that was later identified as cystic fibrosis, today, Dylan is 40 years old and creating exceptional works of art inspired by his own biology, history, and faith. He has been fundraising with Help Hope Live since January 2019.

“I believe that there is hope in the most hopeless situations…that’s certainly what has kept me alive.”
