Marlène’s story
Marlène Freitas was in her early 20s when she was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy, an incurable genetic condition.
Thanks to the care she received at the Montreal Heart Institute and the development of personalized medicine, she can now live her life in a way that she didn’t think possible. She can be there for her daughter as she grows up.
Lives changed thanks to genetics
Scientific advances made at the Institute have not only transformed Marlène’s future, they’ve also had an impact on her entire family. All her relatives have been screened for the disease — a procedure that was unthinkable even 10 years ago.
“These advances have greatly benefited my family because when you have a better idea of what the future has in store, you’re able to prepare.”
