'Going red' is about supporting women who love their hearts

Penn State Hershey Heart and Vascular Institute is supporting women’s heart health with a 1/2-hour TV program on ABC27 called "Heart to Heart (and vascular)." The live program will air at 7:30 p.m. on Feb. 11, and will include stories of two women who were stricken with serious heart problems and a third who developed a vascular condition. All were successfully treated at Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and are on the road to recovery or have resumed normal, productive lives.

The program also will include information on living a heart-healthy lifestyle and modern therapies available to those who already suffer from heart or vascular disease. Viewers, women or men, will have the opportunity to call in to a panel of clinicians who will be available to answer personal questions. Questions also can be submitted by e-mail prior to the program at questions@abc27.com.
