Patient Stories

My dad had a heart attack. I had a heart attack. He died. I lived. The research that took place between them is the difference. Research makes it possible for me to live a wonderful life.

I am not a victim of heart disease, I am a survivor.

Prior to my heart surgery, an organization such as MHIF would not have crossed my mind. Since then, awareness of heart conditions has become a cause I care deeply about.

Having this surgery was like having a reset in life.

I put my hands up and said, I feel like I’m 20 again! I felt like I had my strength back.

They gave me a second chance!
