I walk because I know that with every step, I am saving lives.
We're all tied to heart disease and stroke in some way. We have to change that. Will you help me?
In Feburary 2021, at 42 years old, I was diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure. "You are too young for heart issues" I have been told so many times during my hospital stay and still to this day from health professionals. Family members on both sides of my famiily have heart issues. Thanks to research and medication, my heart is back to regular function and I can live a normal life with my husband three children.
