This year I am walking in memory of two bowling teammates Michael Kump and Jan Nowacki. Michael died suddenly in July of Cardiac Arrest and Jan died due to complications from open heart surgery. I am hoping that by walking in their memory, it will help raise awareness and help find better ways to combat these heart issues.
9 out of 10 people who suffer cardiac arrest outside the hospital die. In most of those cases, bystander CPR was not performed. But we can change this. ?
Cardiac arrests happen at work, in homes, on athletic fields and in neighborhoods everywhere, and the readiness of our community can be the difference between life and death. ?
It's time to unite, take action, and save lives. Every dollar donated, means more people trained in lifesaving CPR, more research and more lifesaving moments for everyone. Together, we can turn bystanders into lifesavers.?
I Walk to Save Lives. Help me reach my goal today and help others at the same time.
Thank you!!
