At a healthy 70 years young, I realize that the heart-health I enjoy is partly due to the life-style choices I have made, such as staying active and eating a heart-healthy diet. Yet, I realize that I am not immune from experiencing a cardiac event.
9 out of 10 people who suffer cardiac arrest outside the hospital die. 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. Please help me reach my goal. Thank you.
