"National Wear Red Day®"

Just ordered my Red Dress Pin  for "National Wear Red Day^®" on Friday, February 3, 2012. I will wear it, along with my red boots and red something or other, in order to promote national awareness of the #1 killer of women, heart disease. Because I am being treated for a heart condition that was found on a routine office visit, I feel I am one of the lucky ones. Lucky because I am aware of my condition and doing something about it. The smarter you are...the luckier you get.

BTW do you know the Heart Attack Warning Signs:

• Chest discomfort
• Discomfort in other areas of the upper body 
• Shortness of breath
• Other signs such as breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness
