Her HeartStory…
After attending an American Heart Association Conference. She met WomenHeart, shared her family’s story, and was selected as a National Spokeswoman for HeartHealth specifically for the Hispanic/Latino Market.

Thanks to WomenHeart, insisting she see a Cardiologist, they saved her life. Fall 2014 she was first detected with a Heart Murmur, later diagnosed with Valvular Regurgitation aka “Leaky Valves”. It’s a condition where the valves don’t close properly making her heart work harder. Now Leticia has her own heart story. Speaking as a caregiver and advocate now patient heart champion.

“Understanding yourself…This will be your true source of lasting sparkles.” via @hhavrilesk #ÁmateAhora
Today, the second day of 2015, is a good Friday to reflect and consider taking on the things we’ve never done. Here’s to saying the things we’ve never had a chance to say to each other. Here’s to letting go of the things we’ve been dragging for years. Here’s to embracing the beauty within. Here’s to welcoming lasting sparkles. Consider we’ve been surrounded by sparkles for years, but most of the time we couldn’t see them. We can’t do anything about that. But let us vow to find more sparkles this year, okay?
Real, lasting sparkles come from one person, a person with the audacity to believe in happiness, to believe in love, to believe that you are special, in spite of great flaws. Real sparkles are generated every second of every day, from one side of the world to the other, in crowded subways and in one-bedroom apartments, on rainy days and in shadowy corners of a cold room. Real sparkles can be found right here, right now. Consider making yourself a cup of tea. Consider how loved you are, right now, even though things may not be going your way. You might not find love for a while, but you can believe in it anyway.
Love can’t happen between two people who are sinking. The sparkles that come from “Can you save me? Will you save me?” go dark in a matter of weeks or months.
Let’s look very closely, and notice the sparkles that surround us, as much as we can.
#AmateAhora challenges you to find SPARKLES within.

Bendice, Señor, a mi familia, a mis amigos y quienes no lo son, porque ellos también necesitan de ti.

A prayer just for you … Lord, I thank you for this wonderful day, for the cold, for the rain, for my family, for my food, for a roof over my head where I can rest, for a day’s work, and especially for a day more of life with the people I love. Lord, bless my family, my friends and those who are not, because they also need you. Bless, O Lord, those which are reading this message now, fulfill their dreams, watch over their steps and guide them. Amen!

Hoy es el Día Nacional de la Esclerosis Múltiple. @joinÁmate les mandamos un fuerte abrazo a los valientes que la padecen.
Mandamos nuestro amor, fuerza y rezos para todas las almas que los cuidan. #AmateAhora
Hoy es el Día Nacional de la Esclerosis Múltiple (EM).
Más de 1.000 personas al año padecen esa enfermedad. Es la segunda causa de minusvalía, y con más frecuencia en mujeres que en hombres (2 por 1).
Es una afección muy dificil. Se siguen las investigaciones y los tratamientos de muy diverso tipo y de muy diversa índole, y se sigue sin sabe qué ocurre con esta mielina.
Nosotros podemos decir, de paso, que hemos trabajado y seguimos haciéndolo con esta afección, y la verdad es que la Medicina Tradicional China (MTC) ha colaborado enormemente a la recuperación de muchas de estas personas.
