I walk for my personal heroes. My dad and Godfather (Uncle Marcus) have always been my heroes and the most incredible role models to so many. For years they both fought heart disease. In the last year my Dad has fought in unimaginable ways to have more tomorrows with us. I could never thank him enough for all that he's done for us, but especially for this incredible sacrifice to keep fighting. Dad/Pepere we love you so much! This year I again walk for you and I walk for Uncle Marcus, two of the strongest men I have had the privilege to have had in my life and my boys.
I know that with every step, I'm making a difference in someone's life. And when combined with a million other Heart Walk Heroes across the nation, we have an even greater impact toward curing heart disease and stroke.
Your donation will fund groundbreaking research like LVADs that literally keeps hearts beating and helps people have longer, healthier lives. This groundbreaking research has given us more time with Dad/Pepere and we couldn't be more grateful for his incredible team at Brigham & Women's Cardiovascular Department.
On September 17th, I will join co-workers to walk for my Dad and in memory of my Uncle Marcus. Have a heart and help me reach my goal today!
