Let's make this Valentine's Day more heartful

Meet @rxtakeheart's dad who is diagnosed with Cardiac Amyloidosis, a rare heart condition.

🫀Amyloidosis is a rare disease that occurs when an abnormal protein, called amyloid, builds up in your organs and interferes with their normal function.

🫀Amyloid isn't normally found in the body, but it can be formed from several different types of protein

🫀Organs that may be affected include the heart, kidneys, liver, spleen, nervous system and digestive tract.⁠

@rxtakeheart's dad was diagnosed with Cardiac Amyloidosis in 2020 and has gone through a lot a series of cardiac procedures in the hopes of preventing more protein deposits on his heart.

As of today, he is not yet a candidate for a transplant but we are hoping that by sharing his story we could spread the news and create big impact on his life.
