Help us raise money

For participating in Minnesota 5K SCADaddle for Research

Our story…

On the morning of June 30, 2019 something just wasn't right... A little achiness in my chest, lightheaded, nauseated and sweaty. To the River Falls ER we went, and in less than 30 minutes of arriving I went into ventricular fibrillation and cardiac arrest. CPR and shock brought me back before I could see Heaven. I was rushed to United Hospital where we learned about SCAD - Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection.  A week later I got my S-ICD (implanted defibrillator). 

I'm so thankful for a second chance at life and love every minute spent with my beautiful family and friends, my very Brave Hearts. 

Please join me in raising awareness and money for research so we can learn more about the rare thing called SCAD. 

Love and gratitude, 

Alisa
