OF THE HEART
How I Survived an 8-Hour Widowmaker Heart Attack

A SPECIAL RECOGNITION
Whispers of the Heart Recognized by the City of Jefferson Heart Health Awareness & Community Wellness Day
On August 22, 2026, the City of Jefferson officially proclaimed Heart Health Awareness and Community Wellness Day, recognizing the importance of cardiovascular health education, preventive care, healthy living, and community support.
The proclamation also recognized Shawn W. Nesbitt for transforming his experience of surviving an eight-hour widowmaker heart attack into a message of resilience, hope, and education through Whispers of the Heart and his continued advocacy for heart-health awareness.
What began as one family's life-changing experience has grown into an opportunity to encourage others to listen to their bodies, prioritize their health, seek preventive care, and share their own stories of recovery and perseverance.
We are deeply grateful to the City of Jefferson for this meaningful recognition—and even more committed to continuing the work.
