Because of Her Daughter

My name is Cindy Dimmer, and we have heart problems that run in our family. Twenty-five years ago, Dr. Barkow was checking my daughter for an ear infection, and she picked up that my daughter didn't have pulses in her legs. One month later, we were at Milwaukee Children's Hospital, and she was having heart surgery. She is now 29 and expecting her first baby. We have always been very thankful to Dr. Barkow for being an excellent doctor and detecting it so early. Walking and eating right has always been very important to my family and me. I walk an average of five miles a day, try to eat three fruits and three vegetables a day, and watch the fat intake; my family tries to do the same. When you start your day out in the fresh air walking with friends, it puts you in the right frame of mind to have a great day!
