Event Details

Featured Survivors:
Valerie Martinez
Heart Survivor

Valerie, a vibrant woman, has a story that embodies resilience, discovery, and hope. From a young age, she was under medical care for a heart murmur, a condition that, fortunately, did not require surgery. She grew up living a full and active life, enjoying cheerleading and dancing, running 5Ks, hiking, and mountain biking. She never imagined that her heart health would become a serious concern later in life.

Kendra Bealor
Heart Survivor

"Christmas 2023 morning, I felt symptoms of a heart attack around 9am. My husband and I went immediately to Taos Holy Cross ER where I underwent a catheter procedure to find and clear the blockage. During the procedure, I had additional heart issues detected (basically, in laymen’s terms, severe electrical malfunctions) so they decided to insert a temporary pacemaker probe to stabilize the heart rhythm and transport me, again via helicopter, to Albuquerque."
