The \u2018Test Your Limits\u2019 team has a new expedition set for January 2013… the South Pole! Join us in raising support for this exciting trek and important cause.<\/p>\n
The team is training daily to get themselves ready for the challenge and pure determination needed to ski to the South Pole. It has been over 7 years since the program was first created out of the inspiration our doctors get from their patients every day as they persevere through their treatments and push themselves to their limit, just to survive. The program grew from the simple idea by Dr. Heather Ross, that we should all be taking the opportunity to be active and push ourselves to live life to the fullest. This idea turned into a challenge for a group of PMCC doctors and transplant patients to climb a mountain to raise awareness and support for advanced heart failure research. The Test Your Limits Program has continued for almost a decade testing limits, taking on challenges, and raising support.The Test Your Limits Program raises awareness and support for: Research, Education & Patient Care for the Advanced Heart Failure Program, Heart Failure, Organ Donation and Transplantation, Heart Disease Prevention, Replacement strategies for Advanced Heart Failure. Their goal is to motivate people to live their life to the fullest, as Dr. Ross says, at \u201cany age, any stage \u2013 test your limits\u201d.<\/p>\n
Join the \u201cTest Your Limits\u201d team by supporting Dr. Heather Ross, Dr. Diego Delgado, Dr. Michel White and Dale Shippam (transplant patient) as they trek to the end of the world to raise awareness for heart failure research, cardiac transplantation and heart health.
