This time of year we all seem to searching for the "perfect gift" to give our kid's or family members that are children. These toys seem so trivial and we know that the toys "excitement" won't last long so this year, 2010 why not give a special gift? The gift of life, by giving your loved one or loved ones, a heart screening.
THE HEART HOSPITAL Baylor Plano offers non-invasive electrocardiogram and echocardiogram screenings to youth ages 13-22. These heart screenings are offered for $100.00.
The heart screening package may prove to be invaluable to hundreds of youth in Plano, Texas and surrounding communities or your local hospital. Parents can call 1-800-4BAYLOR begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 1-800-4BAYLOR end_of_the_skype_highlighting request the “Living for Zachary” screening. Anyone under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is a condition in which the heart suddenly and unexpectedly stops beating. When this happens, blood stops flowing to the brain and other vital organs. SCA usually causes death if it's not treated within minutes.
People who have heart disease are at increased risk for SCA. However, most SCAs happen in people who appear healthy and have no known heart disease or other risk factors for SCA.
Answers to your questions may be found on the Living for Zachary website under FAQ's about Heart Screening.
Living for Zachary encourages you to have your heart screened or have a loved one's heart screened and give the best gift ever - the gift of life. Having your heart screened CAN save your life!
