A very good friend of the family has started a team for this year's Heartwalk in Bristol, RI. Her story is not like many other heart disease patients. She is a only a 31 year old mother of 2. Several years ago her husband had a stroke at the age of 29. After several scary moments in the hospital he awoke and recovered better than the doctors had predicted. His life, while different than before, is still his own...
Fast forward several years later... In January 2007, M had just returned from lunch when she started feel sick. Her coworker called 911 because something wasn't right. M was rushed to a near by hospital where the doctor's found a major artery to her heart tore. The reason, unknown. Her husband was 29 when he suffered from his stroke. She was 31 when she suffered a tear in the artery which lead to a massive heart attack. Both so very young... She will be walking this year for her husband, for her children, for herself, and for so many others that have been affected by heart disease... She has invited her friends and family to join her team, which I will feeling most honored that I can help in some way. I'll be walking for my father, my grandfather, and so many other loved one that suffer from heart disease...
