My WHY for everything is my family and my grandma. She is my hero. I was very close to her growing up. She battled cancer while I was in high school but managed to defeat it. When she first met my husband, she told me to marry him before he had a chance to change his mind. Unfortunately, her cancer returned, and after undergoing chemotherapy, we lost her in April 2016 due to heart failure caused by the treatment, just before she could see me get married. I married my husband on June 6, 2016. She is always with me, and I miss her every day.
I'm carrying the torch! Join me in supporting the American Heart Association!
I'm not just walking. I'm carrying the torch toward a world free from cardiovascular diseases and stroke. My participation in the Heart Mini-Marathon and Walk promotes fun ways to be physically active and make healthier daily choices. Imagine the impact if we reduce death and disability from cardiovascular diseases and stroke by 20 percent by 2020. Please help me reach this lifesaving goal by donating today.
