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. As some of you know my mom has heart failure and for the last 8 years has been living with an LVAD heart pump. Usually used for patients waiting for a new heart, but because of her age it has been her heart! She wears a 10lb battery pack around with her every day. She is so strong and keeps doing her best with grace and that big smile! I wish we would have known the signs of heart disease. I wish everyone could have preventative care to fight heart disease before it hits. We can change that. Will you help me?
Your donation will fund groundbreaking research that literally keeps hearts beating and helps people have longer, healthier lives.
This year, as we celebrate the Centennial of the American Heart Association, we will move health and well-being forward in important and critical ways. This relentless pursuit will continue until heart disease and stroke no longer exist.
Have a heart and help me reach my goal today. Florene and her family will thank you!
