b'That CouldHave Been MeSUE FLETCHERLast summer, a woman wasnt feeling quite right. And, as many women do, she ignored her symptoms of fatigue and discomfort. Not long after, she suffered a fatal heart attack.That could have been me, Sue Fletcher admits as she mourns her friend.Plus, with a family history of heart disease, Sue was not about to ignore her own symptoms of fatigue and shortness of breath. She booked a cardiology appointment at Cleveland Clinic while visiting family in Ohio.Doctors there eventually recommended a complex bypass surgery. But something about it didnt sit quite right with Sue, who returned to HonorHealth andDr. Maulik Shah.Im so glad I did, because I was running out of time. When Dr. Shah reviewed my tests, he could immediately see the problem. He was concerned that we move quickly and recommended one or two stents, a much simpler procedure, Sue explains.Less than a year later and Sue is grateful to be back to the active lifestyle she loves. She has also become an advocate for women to pay attention to their symptoms; her generous gift to the HonorHealth Cardiovascular Center of Excellence will help share that message and provide the level of care this community needs.If you have been touched by someone who has heart disease, as I have, in my brother, father, husband, friend, and now myself, youd understand how important it is that we give what we can to give researchers and doctors new ways to treat heart disease.6 HonorHealth Foundation'
