Cardiovascular disease, including heart attacks and strokes, is the No. 1 killer of women; more than all cancers combined. In fact, 1 out of 3 women will die from heart disease or stroke episodes.
My mom was one of those women. As was her mom. And my father’s mom.
To say this topic is personal, is an understatement.
They are why I joined the American Heart Assocation Go Red for Women, and why I accepted the nomination to be a Woman of Impact. This campaign is about raising much needed funds and continuing to raise awareness about cardiovascular disease.
