As we close out Heart Health Month and enter March, I want to take a moment to bring awareness to Long QT Syndrome..the heart condition that took my sweet Sonny from me.
Long QT is a genetic heart rhythm disorder that can cause fast, chaotic heartbeats, leading to fainting, seizures, or even sudden cardiac arrest. It often goes undiagnosed until it’s too late.
Raising awareness can save lives. If you have a family history of unexplained fainting, seizures, or sudden cardiac death, please talk to your doctor about screening. Early detection and treatment can make all the difference. For Sonny, and for all the little hearts that deserved more time. ❤️

Through my grief, I found the SADS Foundation, an organization dedicated to educating and supporting families affected by genetic heart conditions like Long QT. Working with them brought me so much understanding and peace, helping me navigate this heartbreaking loss while also learning how to protect others🫀
