Share Afib awareness in September

Another failure from the National Stroke Association.

Guargantuan F*cking Whoopee.


 Who gives a shit about awareness? We want solutions/results, do that and it might be worth donating to you.

Dear Dean,
Maureen F - Sized
Watch Maureen’s story
September is Atrial Fibrillation (Afib) Awareness Month, and we are committed to bringing attention to this health condition and its connection to stroke.
Fact: Afib is a type of irregular or “racing” heartbeat that can cause blood to collect in the heart and potentially form a clot that can lead to a stroke.
Fact: Afib increases the risk for stroke by 500%.
Fact: Afib affects an estimated 2.2 million people in the U.S.
There are many stories like Maureen’s—who didn’t know she had Afib prior to having a stroke. It is estimated that one-third of patients with Afib are undiagnosed. Learn how Maureen found her voice and became her own advocate on her road to recovery.
