I walk because I know that with every step, I’m making a difference in someone’s life. Having had a mitral valve repair three years ago, this cause is dear to my heart. I want to walk so that others can get the help they need and not wait for the problem to progress throughout the years. I am looking forward to participating this year in person and doing the walk with a lot of pride and seeing how far I have come with my recovery. When combined with a million other Heart Walk Heroes across the nation, we have an even greater impact on curing heart disease and stroke. Will you be a Heart Walk Hero with me?
