Personal note from Jennifer, Bridget's sister

Bridget always donated to the opera and the Japanese gardens. If you want to send anything in honor of her, please donate to those 2 places. I would also think anything having to do with better healthcare for women, specifically surrounding heart disease would be a cause that she would have become very involved in. She did not feel that she was getting the care she needed and she was not being taken seriously. She knew something was wrong and none of the doctors were treating her as if there was. She would just be told that she was too young and overall healthy for there to really be anything wrong with her. This is a big concern for women where heart disease is concerned. Had they been able to save her, I believe she would have started advocating for better healthcare for women.
