I wanted to share this message from my nephew with you.(Regular crazy messages continue tomorrow) Hello, this is Jared Allwes. As you may know I had heart surgeries as a baby.
I was born with a few congenital heart defects and nearly died within my first week
of life. It was research funded by the American Heart Association just a few years
before I was born that led to breakthroughs that saved my life. In the past year,
the AHA contacted me to speak at some of their events to promote awareness of heart
disease, and I gladly accepted. I recently spoke on Bridge Street about my story
and the Syracuse Heart Walk which will take place, April 19th at Long branch park
in Liverpool, please follow this link to see it:

If you would walk with us or make a donation here, it would be greatly appreciated:
