Amyloidosis - What it is and Current Treatment with Ms. Velma Henderson, RN & Former NFL Player Art Still

Call from Friday March 13th, featuring Ms. Velma Henderson, RN & former NFL Pro-Bowl Linebacker Art Still!

Velma Henderson, RN, MS, CNAA, BC, is an accomplished Administrator, Consultant, Trainer and Presenter. She retired as Chief Nursing Officer at Howard University Hospital Washington, D.C. where in addition to her regular duties, she developed and implemented a comprehensive, organization-wide Customer Service Improvement Plan. She also served as a board member for WomenHeart, the National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease, the Chi Eta Phi Education Foundation, the National Black Nurse Association and the Nursing Spectrum.

Art Still is one of the greatest defensive ends in University of Kentucky history, and built a remarkable 12-year NFL career, including an amazing run with the Kansas City Chiefs. Yet today, football is only part of his story.

In 2023 he was diagnosed with ATTR amyloidosis, a rare hereditary disease caused by the buildup of amyloid proteins that can impair major organs, often affecting the nerves, heart, and kidneys. Now Still is using his platform to raise awareness and advocate for early detection and treatment of this condition.
