Our Survivor
Kim Davis
I was 41 years old, with a thriving career and a beautiful family. As I was leaving my job on a Saturday morning, and got into my van to go home I started feeling pressure in the center of my chest. I experienced extreme dehydration and sudden exhaustion. The following day as I was walking into church with my husband, the symptoms came back. After church, we spoke with one of our friends who just happened to be a physician. She told us we needed to go to the emergency room—and quickly. I reluctantly agreed to go.
I hope you will attend the luncheon and hear more about why I Go Red.
