My Story…
Let me first start by saying I am a SCAD survivor! On September 6 I had a heart attack caused by SCAD. In 2019 my sister Michelle devastatingly passed away from her SCAD. This left our families in great despair and I never thought it would happen to me, until it did. To say I am grateful to be here is an understatement, my cardiologist told me about this race, first time ever in Pittsburgh, and I knew I had to do it. Just like the other SCAD survivors, predominately healthy women age 40-50, it hits out of no where, well , we want anwers! Why me and my sister, are my kids at risk, why is it often misdiagnosed????? Please consider donating if you can and if you can’t , at least get educated as you never know when it can save a life! ❤️
