Any teens with heart disease near Houston, TX

Any teens with heart disease near Houston, TX?
I'm (along with another heart support group) starting a group to support teenagers affected by Congenital Heart Disease in Houston, Texas. It's for both healthy and those with heart disease, so if you would like to join, just reply! :-)

caileywailey - I think that is a fantastic idea! If you are not already a member, I would suggest that you also look at being a part of the Adult Congenital Heart Association (achaheart.org). Their website includes a message board where I'm sure you'd be able to find some more adolescents in the Houston area who might be interested in being a part of your group! Good luck to you!

Rheumatic heart disease will not go away. It occured because you had strep throat that was not treated with antibiotics. This can cause rheumatic fever a few weeks later that can damage the heart and or kidneys. Try seeking the help of a nutritionist to design the best diet for your condition. Also talk to your doctor about the implications of the damage that was caused so you can see if anything can be treated. Good luck.

What month is women's heart disease awareness month ("red dress" campaign)?
I could've sworn it was March, but I haven't seen anything about it, so I figure I must be wrong.
