This is one woman's raw, honest account of facing a heart attack and undergoing open-heart bypass surgery. From the operating room to the long road of recovery, this book shares the ups, the downs, and the surprising moments no one warns you about. It shows what it really feels like to confront the possibility of death head-on.

Meet Jeanne and Tommy, who helped her get through it with their comic relief, humor, and unwavering support during some of the most difficult moments of her life.

Everyone's journey is unique, and what worked for the author may not work for you. Take what resonates, leave what does not, and always follow medical advice from qualified professionals.

A powerful section in the book shares advice from three notable doctors. It offers guidance, insight, and practical tips for navigating heart health before and after surgery. Anyone who wants to stay in good health can benefit from this advice.

As a special bonus, the author shares her Recovery Questions™ and Rewire Question Sets™, a simple but powerful mental recovery system she used to help herself move through fear, uncertainty, anxiety, and self-doubt after surgery. These guided questions are designed to help readers shift their focus from fear to healing, from worry to progress, and from uncertainty to hope. Included are special question sets for both patients and caregivers, along with journaling exercises that can help transform recovery into a journey of growth, resilience, and renewed confidence.

Whether you are preparing for heart surgery, recovering from a bypass, supporting a loved one through recovery, or suddenly thrust into the role of caregiver, this book provides perspective, comfort, practical strategies, and emotional support. If you have never experienced a heart attack, reading this now can help you understand the journey before you ever need it.

This is more than a story about surviving.

It is a story about healing, hope, resilience, and learning how to build a better life after one of life's biggest wake-up calls.

We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies.

Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence.
