We saved our Heart Center!

What a wonderful day!
Almost 200 people turned out at our state capitol to speak out about the future of our cardiac center. After 5 hours of testimony and public commentary, The Waterbury Heart Center was given a 6 month extension to remain open and eventually get it's permanent certificate!!!
All of our representatives and Senators spoke of the importance of the center remaining open. It services a population of over 300,000 residents and since it's inception it has saved thousands of lives. To all that signed the petition, I personally thank you and could not be more proud of all the people that made this thier personal mission!
