My passion to provide information to the public includes statistics. These statistics help to bring into perspective a valuable piece to the information being shared. A study or compilation of REAL people make up these statistics and are everyday people just like you and me. To be stricken with an illness – many of these people never thought this would happen to them. Some heart patients may hear the person that hasn’t been through what they have, jokingly say, “well, they should put a zipper in so they can go in and out of your chest when surgeons want to.” Tell that joke to someone else that hasn’t watched their young child beat the odds one day and struggle defenseless the next.
Remember when you hear statistics, it may be the person that can’t lie flat and sleep, as told by my husband in his book, “A Second Chance.” 
Because of congestive heart failure, he attempted to find comfort and slept sitting upright on 4 to 6 pillows for a period of tme. I want to say to that patient, I witnessed the dilemma you face walking to the edge of the lawn to get the mail but getting halfway, you stop and try to decide which would be better for you. Do you turn around and go back indoors or complete your mission now seeming virtually impossible due to your heart condition?
We are (I am) Chip’n Away @ Heart Disease for your loved ones, my loved ones, for my neighbors, my friends, my co-workers ~ FOR ME.
To Your Health, Cynthia Malone
