Pain & Movement Solutions will join the Rapid City Heart Walk, an event dedicated to fighting heart disease and stroke. For our team, the walk is both a way to highlight our new Cardiac Therapy Program and an opportunity to honor our “Heart Hero,” 10-year-old Bridger.

Bridger was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS)—a condition where only half of his heart developed. Thirty years ago, HLHS was considered a death sentence. Thanks to research and advances in treatment, Bridger has survived multiple open-heart surgeries and is now an active, adventurous boy who loves sports, hunting, and being a great big brother.

But HLHS is a lifelong condition. Bridger will need ongoing medical care and continued advancements in research to stay healthy.

This is why we walk. Every step, every donation, and every conversation at the Heart Walk helps fuel research and programs that save lives and support families like Bridger’s and every other family that battles heart disease. 

We invite you to join us on September 6th as we walk for Bridger, for our patients, and for every heartbeat that deserves a healthier tomorrow.
