Sam and I were asked to speak at the American Heart Association’s Team Captain Meeting for the USA Campus and Health System this morning. Sam is an excellent extemporaneous speaker – we’re very proud of him and his willingness to share his SCAx2 story and helping to make a difference in our community. Sam was the Survivor Speaker for last year’s AHA Heart Walk events in both Baldwin and Mobile counties. Today he updated this story and told of his second SCA survival.
Only 12 more openings for heart screenings for the event coming up on August 16th in Mobile. I’m excited that it has filled up so quickly and am thankful for so many who are willing to volunteer their time and money to make this happen!
