In recognition of American Heart Month, take time to tend to your heart.
A recently concluded study spanning 20 years (1987-2017) found that heart health may be linked to lowering the risk for dementia later in life.

And please remember to donate blood. With the strong winter we’ve been having in the NW, many blood supplies are at critically low levels. https://www.bloodworksnw.org/donate/locations
