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?
I am tied to both heart disease and stroke. My father has suffered multiple strokes over the last five years and inevitably had to quit working because of his deficits. In combination with the research that is done by the American Heart Association and his determined daughter, we have controlled his hypertension, cardiac complications and lessened his chance for another recurring stroke. My paternal family has a significant heart disease history, my aunt and grandfather both passed away from heart attacks. Many other friends and family members are part of my purpose. I believe the reason I was placed in the position I currently have as the Senior Practice Manager of the UPMC HVI Erie Offices was to save lives and promote heart disease.
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.
