HOCM Awareness
JJ Facey lived from February 17th 2006 to August 19th 2024, 6758 days, 2 hours, 33 minutes. Not long enough. We will not only ensure that JJ has a full celebration of life, but that his legacy will live on forever. His condition was treatable but not known due to the lack of required heart checks in any youth, athlete or not. We will fight to ensure that not another boy, girl, man or woman falls victim to this treatable heart condition.
JJ suffered from HOCM (Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy), a heart condition that requires much more research and respect, as a potentially life threatening condition, triggered by hypertensive activity. There are so many individuals like JJ unaware of this heart issue. Our goal is to ensure all children, not just athletic children - have access to preventative treatments such as EKG (electrocardiogram) and a ultrasound of the heart to discover any deformities or maladies in the heart.
JJ was beloved by all who knew him. He was kind, athletic, courageous, inspiring, gentle, smart, loyal, loving, handsome, bright, STRONG, competitive, humble, dedicated, honest, gracious, family oriented, outgoing, brave, polite, calm, patient, vibrant, charming, funny, happy, stress free, impactful and always lived life to the fullest. His smile would light up a room. Why so many words? Because he was so many of these to so many people. An amazing young man that exemplified all of these things we have described above. #LLJJ
