Rock from the Heart
Rock from the Heart , a nonprofit organization focused on heart health education and awareness programs , was founded in 2018 by Delano residents Pete and Amy Johnson after Pete survived aortic aneurysm and aortic valve replacement surgery .
The mission is to help the newly diagnosed along the journey from diagnosis to recovery . Rock from the Heart reaches out to the community through music , connecting survivors , medical professionals and other affected by aortic disease .
Rock from the Heart organizes heart disease education and awareness programs with a primary focus on aortic health . Aortic disease is often known as a “ silent killer ” and most thoracic aortic aneurysms are discovered incidentally when the patient is being treated for another condition . Aortic valve disease , aortic aneurysms , and aortic dissections are potentially life-threatening conditions if not diagnosed in time . But with greater awareness and education of doctors , emergency medical technicians , emergency room workers , and patients , lives can be saved .
