SUSAN'S STORY"Both my mother and sister had heart attacks and eventually open-heart surgery. This was a wake-up call for me. I started looking at my life and the risk factors I had and realized some things had to change. The most important thing for me has been finding the right doctorsomeone who is interested in helping prevent heart disease, rather than waiting until I have a heart attack. As a woman, you have to be able to ask your doctor the right questions and be aggressive about your own care."
