Did you know that 9 out of 10 people who suffer cardiac arrest outside the hospital die. I made it to the hospital on Sept. 30, 2024 and this is why I will be walking (or should I say "this is why I'm able to walk"). In most of those cases, bystander CPR was not performed. But we can change this.
Cardiac arrests happen at work, in homes, on athletic fields and in neighborhoods everywhere, and the readiness of our community can be the difference between life and death.
It's time to unite, take action, and save lives. Every dollar donated, means more people trained in lifesaving CPR, more research and more lifesaving moments for everyone. Together, we can turn bystanders into lifesavers.
I Walk to Save Lives. Help me reach my goal today.
From the bottom of my repaired heart,
Thank you
Linda Ward
