Heart failure (or congestive heart failure) doesn’t mean your heart has failed or stopped beating. It means that your heart, which is a muscle that pumps blood to all parts of your body, is not working as well as it should be and can’t pump as much blood as your body needs. As your heart's pumping action lessens, blood may back up in your lungs, liver, or legs.

Well everyone, it looks like we do indeed all scream for ice scream! I am so impressed, when I asked you all to submit your own ice cream post, I was not expecting such a great turnout - there were 26 entries! They ranged from adult ice cream sodas to watermelon bombs and everything in between.
