AG's Road to Recovery

Hi everyone!

I wanted to spread the word that we are kicking off a fundraiser for one of our own, Alyssa Gannon. Alyssa suffered a major heart attack less than a month ago. With the help of her hospital team of doctors and nurses, family, and friends, she has since turned the corner and is in good spirits, but still has a long road of recovery ahead of her. Alyssa has built out a team to participate in the Low Country Heart Walk on 2/25 here in Charleston. We are raising money to contribute directly to Alyssa’s recovery as well as support her team in the Low Country Heart Walk. Below is a statement directly from her team, “We Stent with AG”.

On Monday, January 2nd 2023, our friend Alyssa had a massive heart attack at the age of 34. After recognizing the warning signs in her living room, she took action and drove herself to the hospital for immediate care. Alyssa went into cardiac arrest requiring CPR and advance life support. Due to the fast response and excellent teamwork from nurses and doctors, she regained a pulse and transferred to the cath lab.

Alyssa received 2 stents in her LAD (widowmaker) and was transferred to the cardiac unit where she received incredible care for 5 days. On January 7th, Alyssa walked out of the hospital and returned home to her family, friends and beloved FRED.

Alyssa is recovering amazingly with the help of her family, friends, and Instagram stories. We are excited to see how much stronger Alyssa continues to grow and educate others to LISTEN TO YOUR BODY.
