Students and staff were deeply moved this morning as Victoria Voegerl bravely shared her personal journey with heart disease during a special presentation.
In honor of heart health awareness, the student spoke openly about her diagnosis, the challenges she has faced, and the strength she has found along the way. She described doctor visits, lifestyle changes, and the emotional impact of learning at a young age that her heart needed special care.
Her speech highlighted the importance of listening to your body, supporting one another, and never taking your health for granted. She also emphasized the work of the American Heart Association and how organizations like this help raise awareness, fund research, and support families affected by heart disease.
