A Promise Kept for PAD Awareness Month

We are honored to share Tammy Leitsinger’s A Promise Kept, a moving reflection on her mother Betty’s journey with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD). From the first signs of diagnosis through the challenges of progression, Tammy shares her story of resilience and underscores the importance of early detection and awareness. 

By sharing Betty’s story, Tammy highlights the impact of PAD on patients and their loved ones while reinforcing the importance of education, advocacy, and innovation in vascular health. Betty’s story continues to inspire progress toward a future where patients and families have better tools, earlier diagnoses, and stronger support.
