I am grateful for the front line workers who have been there for us the last four years. The physicians, EMTs, first responders, hospital staff and also the medical device companies who see a need and design products to help save lives. Our family has been impacted by heart disease and strokes and we are coming out the other side with a renewed excitement for what is to come and to spread the word. And we have our own conqueror who looks this disease in the eye and fights back!
On average, someone in the US dies of cardiovascular disease every 34 seconds. That is 2,510 US deaths per day. And someone in the US dies of a stroke every 3 minutes and 14 seconds. That is 448 US deaths from stroke per day.
This isn't just about CPR and heart attacks. This is about heart disease, stroke, etc.
Did you know that diabetes or prediabetes affects over half of US adults?
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.
I Walk to Save Lives. I walk for my family, my friends and my patients. Help me reach my goal today.
