I walk becuase I know that with every step, I am saving lives.
I have accepted a challenge to join a friend to raise money for the American Heart Association. On June 8th 2024, Garrett (G’s Team) and I will be walking in the Metro Detroit Heart and Stroke Walk. We're all tied to heart disease and stroke in some way.
My story actually starts about 5 months back when my step-dad had a heart attack at a football game. He is a very healthy guy but something happened that triggered a heart attack. He is doing well and was walking a mile and half a week later after his attack. However a month or so after that my mother had a heart attack and a stroke, talk about double whammy. Her’s was a lot more serious and took some time for recovery but she is currently doing well. However, with some of the advances and knowledge of the medical staff, they were able to use some medicine to help with her issues at that time.
With your donation this will go towards groundbreaking research that literally keeps hearts beating and helps people have longer, healthier lives.
Please make a donation and help me reach or crush my goal.
Thank you,
Norm
