Boy:  Hey, Gram, what are those purple footsteps?

Gram:  I don't know, let's follow them.

Boy:  This one says P-A-D. What's that?

Gram:  Peripheral Arterial Disease, or clogged arteries in your legs.  It says P-A-D raises the risk of heart attack and stroke especially if you're over 50.

Boy:  Do you have P-A-D, Gram?

Gram:  I don't know.  But I'm sure going to ask my doctor about it.  Now...are you ready to GO?

Boy:  Yeah!

Announcer:  Follow the purple footsteps at www dot ABOUT P-A-D dot org to learn more.
