Liam Rossiter has been living with heart failure for over 5 years.
in 2017, he began to feel unwell and got worse throughout the year.
Eventually Liam got to the stage where hospital care was inevitable - his breathing deteriorated and he began to turn blue.
On reflection, Liam had been suffering from symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath, reduced ability to exercise, and a persistent cough for about six months.
He was diagnosed with heart failure and had a procedure to drain excess fluid in his heart.
Heart failure or heart inefficiency occurs when the heart is not working as well as it should and is not pumping blood around the body efficiently.
Liam experienced a positive recovery but realises not everyone with heart failure has the same experience.
“I’m on the other side now and thankfully able to do everything that I could do before I was diagnosed”
“I have gone from not being able to walk up a short hill a few years ago to going out on the bike now for three and a half hours. I feel I am one of the lucky ones.”
May 1 to 7 is Heart Failure Awareness Week. If you, a family member or someone you care for suffers from Heart Failure, be sure to reach out to us – we are here to support you ❤️
The first event in our “Heart Failure Awareness and Education Series” takes place in Dublin on Wednesday 3 May and we would like to extend a warm invite to all patients, carers and professionals affected by the condition to come along (Link in the comments).

Plant stanols can be purchased in LiDl or Aldi. They are as effective as the branded products.
1 yogurt drink a day after your main meal will give you the right amount of stanols to work on your cholesterol

What is Aldi? A supermarket?
