We Walk to Save Lives!
I am one out of ten people , who survived a sudden cardiac arrest , outside of a hospital setting. During a church mass, three bystanders did become my lifesavers , by performing immediate CPR. An EMT arrived with his AED and the third shock was the charm ! I came back in his ambulance talking .
I shocked him ! Coming back from a SCA , so quickly , is generally unheard of .However , talking did not shock those , who know me best !
Cardiac arrests can happen anywhere and to anyone . As a community , we need to be ready. With just minutes to spare, knowing what to do , can make the difference between life and death. Just like my "Angels"were there for me , you can be there for someone you love.

Since teaching is what I do best , my purpose has become to educate others on SCAs, CPR and the availability of AEDs, Walking to Save Lives has become a part of this purpose. Please help us to reach our goal by joining our team or donating to Ann's Angels. Every dollar raised means more people trained in CPR , more research , and more lifesaving moments for everyone. Together, we can turn all bystanders into lifesavers and save lives, just like mine.
