Expecting Hearts' mission is to bring awareness to PPCM and other cardiovascular conditions. We are also passionate about helping Heart Warrior families in need. The mission of Expecting Hearts Inc is to bring awareness to PPCM (peripartum cardiomyopathy); a condition in which heart failure is caused in the last month of pregnancy or up to 5 months postpartum. The saddest part about PPCM is that women continue to die of this disease but most women who are diagnosed early make a full recovery. Most of the time the lack of awareness causes misdiagnosis and undue suffering in women with this condition. The foundation will also work to bring awareness to heart failure in all people, not just PPCM related heart failure.
