BUILDING A HUMAN HEART IN 2020: A MESSAGE FROM DR. DORIS TAYLOR

I wanted to take a minute and introduce something truly fantastic! It's a story of one day being able to knock out heart disease in our lifetime.

It's a story that if you didn't know any better, you'd guess it came straight from a science fiction novel. But it didn't.

As Peter Diamandis, the author of Abundance: The Future Is Better Than You Think, said “The day before something is truly a breakthrough, it’s a crazy idea.” Your generosity towards this groundbreaking advancement will ultimately change the way heart disease is treated forever.

Please consider donating. Our goal is to raise $50,000. It's only through these types of efforts do remarkable things happen. You can hit the DONATE button in the blog post below. Any amount is appreciated.

WE ARE CREATING THE FUTURE OF MEDICINE TODAY!
