My Great Strides Story

Hello! and Welcome to Our Team Page
My Journey with Cystic Fibrosis has been the beginning of a lifelong testimony and the responsibility to raise awareness and continue a loving legacy.
I am the spouse and father of 3 Cystic Fibrosis warriors:
I was introduced to my loving wife, Alexandra Ashby, in 2015, and we quickly developed a friendship that turned into an unbelievable and unrelenting love story. Through her hospitalizations and daily battle, I feel for her tenacity and spark for life. We were married in 2019, and soon welcomed our Son, Landon, in November of that year. We found out about his CF diagnosis right before Christmas that year.
Their journey led to battles with pharmacies, wellness grants, and the eventual clinical trials that allowed them both to be given Tricafta, which has changed our lives and outlook on CF for the better. Our daughter Estelle was born in October of 2024 and was diagnosed that Spring. Juggling a home with 3 CCFerswas exhausting, but we strived to not to make this disease our identity. We continued to grow through what we went through."
On November 14th, 2025, our world was flipped upside down when Alex tragically died in a single-car accident early that morning. I now face life with my children as a widowed father of two CFers. But this tragedy will not slow our resolve to raise awareness, continue to advocate for research, and fight until the day CF stands for Cure Found.
I hope you join us in May, or donate to this cause, as we continue to "Grow Through what you go Through".
