Walkers were up early Saturday raising awareness and funding for heart disease at the USA's campus for the 2023 American Heart Association Mobile Heart Walk.) -
“Abe you get all of the credit for a beautiful day! And next year -- come on out -- and let’s do it again! Go Jags and go Heart Walk,” said Jo Bonner, University of South Alabama President. “Yes, and for me personally -- my dad has a lot of cardiovascular issues throughout the years. So Heart Walk for me kind of rings home for me to walk for my dad and all of the heart problems he has had... So it’s for a great cause -- so that’s why we come out,” said FOX 10′s Lacey Beasley.
“My mom -- back in 2005 she had a stomach bug and she got so sick they admitted her into the hospital overnight just to observe her. And the next day they found out one of her main arteries was 95% blocked -- they called it the ‘Widow Maker.’ She ended up having quadruple bypass surgery. But she’s here now and stronger than ever,” said Tiffany Fuller.
