I will never forget the moment in my young childhood that changed my life forever. I was sitting at a kitchen counter eating dinner when my mom received a call that my dad was in the Emergency Department, resuscitation efforts were underway and he was in severe cardiac distress--get to the hospital fast. My mom, sister and I rushed to the hospital to learn the life changing news that my father had passed away. Being a young child, I did not fully comprehend or understand the magnitude of the event nor what it meant however that experience was the catalyst that ignited my passion for healthcare and the reason I'm Fundraising for the Heart Walk today-- I want to be part of the mission to fund the necessary research and advancement that keeps hearts beating and helps people enjoy longer, healthier lives.
It's not just my efforts alone that will one day help us see a world free of heart disease and stroke. I am walking with a team of heart heros because together, we will have an even greater impact. And you can help us change the world, one step at a time, by donating to my fundraiser.
Please help me now by donating. Because every step counts. And together we are helping save lives!
Have a heart and help me reach my goal today!
