If you had told me almost eight years ago, when I was lying in the ICU from a stroke that hit me WHILE I was driving at 65 mph on an interstate highway and left me unable to walk, talk, or swallow, that I would one day be part of an American Heart Association national campaign, I wouldn't have believed it. The journey and recovery back to what I call "my magnificent life" was, at times, excruciating. (You can read about it in my book, My Stroke in the Fast Lane: A Journey to Recovery.)
I'm incredibly honored today to be among the nine women the American Heart Association chose (see above!) for "2025 New York City Go Red for Women Class of Survivors". Since my stroke, I've wanted to share my experience to raise awareness of cardiovascular disease, the #1 threat to women, even over cancer.
I’d love your support! Please consider donating to this terrific cause to educate people and spread the word about strokes & women’s heart health.
