Our Great Strides Story
Same team, new location!!!
This is CHASEing A Cure's 20th year participating in Great Strides. Chase is a freshman at Mizzou this year (one of his goals since he was little was to be a Tiger!) so we thought it would be fun to do the walk in Columbia this year.
Chase continues to do well since starting Trikafta in 2019. He has not had a hospitalization in 6 years, his PFTS are at 113 (before Trikafta his normal was low 90s), and he has actually been able to cut down on the treatments and medicines he takes. "Cut down" are the key words though--he still takes many pills a day and does his airway clearance in some form twice a day. We are getting close to a cure but we won't stop UNTIL IT'S DONE!
We walk for a cure for all people with cystic fibrosis. By joining our team, you can help us end this disease!
