A fast recovery
Hina just couldn’t fathom why it had happened. Luckily she
was treated quickly, and managed to recover as fast as she could,
so that she could look after her children.
Hina is now thankful to be alive, and the experience has
changed her life in certain ways.
Of our resources she says: "They
were simply invaluable and a great source of
information."
Hina shares our booklets and Heart Matters magazine with her
family. Her children get the newsletters
too, and really enjoy reading them.
Our Heart HelpLine has helped
Hina understand more about her condition and medication and
how to return to a normal life.
Worried about the misconception that young
people and especially women don't suffer from heart related
diseases, Hina wants people to know the truth.
"Heart disease can strike anyone at
any time. We need to be conscious of what we eat, what we do and
how much exercise we do on a regular basis."
Simple things like being able to walk her
daughter to school again were indications that Hina’s life was
getting back to normal. She didn’t like other people taking on
her role as a mother.
"I can't do certain things like
certain rides in amusement parks, but generally I am able to live a
very fulfilling life."
