Happy Birthday August (and Cousin Campbell)

The weekend before August's actual first birthday and the day after Campbell's 6th birthday we had a little party at the ranch... entitled Winter Onederland!

We shared snowball cupcakes...

We decorated snowflake ornaments, made snow globes, and our pretend snowball fight was more like a snow pile on top of Uncle Brian.

It was REALLY exciting.

Right, Lance?

What is Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy?

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, is one of the four main types of cardiomyopathy. Characterized by the abnormal growth of muscle fibers on the heart muscle, HCM often results in a thickened septum and/or left and right ventricle. The thickening of the muscle can result in a resistance of blood flow both in and out of the heart’s chambers. When this occurs, the heart must work harder to pump blood throughout the body.

While perceived to be somewhat rare, HCM affects an estimated one in 500 people. It is the number one reason for heart transplants and the most common cause of sudden cardiac death in people under age 30. HCM may be best known for its role in cardiac arrest and subsequent death in some young professional athletes. The cause of HCM is largely unknown, however current research suggests it is genetic in origin.
