This week on In Touch, we speak with Kathy McCarthy, Susan Downing and Jodi Hammell, all in regard to the Go Red For Women 20th Anniversary Luncheon happening on Thursday, November 14th in Poughkeepsie. Kathy shares a number of stats from the American Heart Association and tips to prevent heart disease, a heart attack, stroke and more. Susan goes into depth on what to expect from the event. Then, Jodi, a stroke survivor, tells her story and how she has bounced back after such a scary and life-altering incident.
