Chad Butrum touched the lives of many people before cardiomyopathy ended his life. Hidden heart disease strikes many other lives as well - each victim of this hidden disease is a son or daughter, brother or sister, niece or nephew, loved one or friend. We hope this site will be a place where all of you can share your stories, thoughts and memories. 

 

If you have a loved one who has been affected by cardiomyopathy, and would like to share your story, please email Chad's mother at Arista@chadfoundation.org.
