Then the sudden terror of serious illness.Why should such a tiny heart have to face such a struggle? But as news anchor Bret Baier discovers, this is a special heart." - from the rear outer jacket cover "What if every parent's worst nightmare became real for your family on just the second day of your baby's life? Bret Baier seemingly had it all - a rocketing career, a wicked golf swing, a wonderful life - then suddenly none of it mattered. His world of joy and contentment turned instantly into one of fear and anguish. Special Heart is the deeply touching true story of Baier's rise to personal and professional fulfillment, then his nosedive overnight into the perilous world of pediatric heart disease. It's the remarkable saga of his son's bravery and survival and his family's poignant journey of faith, told through the eyes of a respected journalist and Fox News anchor. None of Bret's previous assignments could have prepared him for the news that his first child, Paul, was not perfectly healthy as he'd thought, but, instead, had life-threatening heart complications. Suddenly he and his wife, Amy, face the most daunting challenge imaginable, far more frightening than reporting from battlefields, significantly more momentous than interviewing presidents, world leaders and newsmakers of the day: caring for a critically ill newborn. From the very first page, readers will become totally and personally swept up in this family's harrowing but courageous tale. Baier shares what life has been like: the emotional behind-the-scenes stories of Paul's three open-heart surgeries and seven angioplasties, and the everyday adventures of a happy child, charging full speed ahead through life. Bret and Amy emerge - just like their brave young son - scarred but infinitely stronger, and clearly understanding what matters most in life. Peppered with humorous anecdotes from Baier's rise in journalism, this loving father's hope-filled account offers an inspirational glimpse into the off-camera journey of a man who just happens to be someone millions turn to on camera for the day's news." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.…
