SLU Patient Shares Women and Heart Disease Story

February 18, 2015, ST. LOUIS – Few people can embody women and heart disease awareness better than Vanessa Cochran. The professor at Lindenwood University and mother of three shared her story of fighting heart disease in her teens with KPLR-TV’s Christine Buck on her daily “Afternoons on 11″ program.

You can watch the entire show on their website here, but we wanted to share with you Vanessa’s story. She proves heart disease not only doesn’t know gender, it doesn’t know age either.
