Over a month ago I sent a letter to our Governor and State Representatives ( one who supports the Congenital Heart Futures Act ) requesting a proclamation for making Congenital Heart Defect Week Official in our state of Ohio.
Although I am still waiting to hear from them I am encouraging everyone to do the same.
The more people the better! You do not have to be personally affected by CHD’s to understand the importance of spreading awareness.
Please help us educate people everywhere.
To see a letter sample and proclamation sample see my post with those titles on blog post!
Just a few minutes to send this letter request can save a Childs life and save a parent from losing a child!!
It is a proven fact that the earlier CHD is detected and treated; it is more likely the affected child will survive and have less long term health complications. Source: March of Dimes.
