Meg McCormick is living with heart disease and is now trained to help others dealing with similar struggles. MORE ⬇️
Heart disease, according to the American Heart Association, is the number one killer of women. The association says it causes one in three deaths each year."I didn't have high cholesterol. I didn't drink. I didn't smoke. I didn't do anything registered on the books,” said McCormick.
McCormick didn't sweat it, but she continued taking tests and stayed overnight in a hospital. During her stay, McCormick says she had a heart attack. She is still here and after experiencing some brain damage, the mom had to learn life all over again. The program, sponsored by the Mayo Clinic, taught her the causes and effects of heart disease, explained the latest trends, the socio-economic disparities in treatments and put her face-to-face with cardiovascular surgeons.
