Petition updateGive Canadian Pulmonary Hypertension Patients Access to Life-Prolonging Treatments
Small Update!

The PHight or Flight Project

Sep 15, 2016
Hi everyone,
Unfortunately my last update wasn't sent to everyone, so I apologize if the link at the very bottom is a repeat for some of you. Pulmonary Hypertension News wrote an article with some more information about my petition, along with some information about me and why I started the petition. The link can be found below for anyone who would like to read or share it.
Thank you to everyone who has helped support this petition so far. The petition has finally hit over 300 signatures. Thank you to everyone who has signed, shared, promoted and left a comment about why this petition is important to them! I hope that together our voices can be heard, but unfortunately, we are still going to need a lot more signatures to get the attention of those in Canada who can help us.
Please feel free to keep sharing this petition if you have already signed, and would like to help me reach my goal of gaining enough petitions for government officials and organizations to take notice. Every little bit helps, and a little can go a long way!
Here is a picture of me from today, showing the more routine part of life with PH that I don't often share on social media. Many people with PH are required to get their blood monitored weekly to monthly for several different things. (Such as to have their INR examined, or to check for liver failure, a side effect of many PH medications.) Today I didn't feel well. I had to take a nap. After my nap I still couldn't muster up the energy to wash my hair or put myself together. Certainly not the typical life of someone in their 20's.
Thanks again for all the support.
