When mum-of two-Hina was just 36, the joy of preparing for Diwali with her young daughter turned to fear in an instant when she suffered a heart attack out of the blue.

In this episode, Ruth Huntman from the BHF talks with Hina about coming to terms with having a heart attack at such a young age, being able to reach poignant family milestones she thought she may never see, and why the BHF was a lifeline during her recovery.

Hina's story is one at the heart of the BHF’s This is Science 2.0 campaign. You can find more information here:
