I walk because the research funded by our donations to the American Heart Association’s HeartWalk blessed me by giving me more precious time with my grandfather. Because of medications and research my grandfather not only survived a heart attack while young, but went on to live into his 90s. My family was was able to celebrate the joys life brings throughout the years with him. We were able to learn from his wisdom on countless endeavors, to celebrate weddings and grandchildren, and to celebrate his 67 year long marriage.
I walk because 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. Will you be a Heart Walk Hero with me?
