Living With Heart Failure And An AICD

In 2007, a routine heart procedure turned into a life-changing diagnosis: heart failure.

The words, reflections, and lived experience are my own.Contact A Body RebelsMore info about Sarcoidosis and to donate toward research: The Foundation For Sarcoidosis Research
