I took this picture of my kids on Easter Sunday this year from my hospital bed. I had an 45 second Ventricular Tachycardia episode two days earlier that sent me to the emergency room and after a week stay in the hospital, all of the tests, heart cath, EP study, 3 months of wearing a life vest, and a heart ablation, I am walking because I am alive and able to. I am very lucky to be alive which makes this walk so meaningful to me. I would love for anyone and everyone to join me on 9/20 and walk! And if you cannot walk and can make a donation, that's great too!
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. \u200b
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. \u200b
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.\u200b
I Walk to Save Lives. Help me reach my goal today.\u200b
