Information
Dear sister:
You're here because your doctor has told you that you have Peripartum
Cardiomyopathy. No doubt, you've Googled the disease and read a
lot of very old information on it. And you're scared. Well,
we're glad you've found us because we can help.
This site is made up of women who, just like you, have been diagnosed
with PPCM. At one time or another, we've all stood where you're
standing and we didn't much like the view. But please don't lose
hope. Not all cardiologists are up to date on PPCM because many
of them will never deal with it in their lifetimes. And most of
the information they have is based on outdated studies.
Let me reassure you that, while this illness is very serious, it is not
a death sentence carved in stone. Most of the women on this site
have gone on to heal and lead wonderfully long and productive
lives. The most important thing for you to do now is to arm
yourself with all the information you can, maintain a positive
attitude, and develop a good support system to help you along your
journey.
Please feel free to poke around the site and gather the information you
need. We have message boards to share information and offer
healing prayers and to prop you up when you're feeling low. We've
all leaned on one another along the way. It helps to know you're
not alone.
