{"product_id":"2940152094381","title":"Gibraltar, The Story of My Heart","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book is the tale of a remarkable man. With his excellent physical condition and active lifestyle, Johannes F. Lisiecki was not a likely candidate for heart disease. Yet one day he found himself suffering a major cardiac event that soon led to open heart surgery and a complicated recovery. Despite the challenges, within a year Johannes was swimming many miles each week, had established an organization to promote awareness of congenital heart disease, and set a goal to swim the Strait of Gibraltar. His endurance and perseverance amazed the doctors, but Johannes believes other heart patients can make the same dramatic recovery. This book gives a truly inspiring and realistic view of the events surrounding heart surgery and the recovery process, including the psychological journey for patients and their caregivers. It is definitely a must read for anyone undergoing heart surgery and\/or treatment. This book contains all the elements we love: danger, suspense, pathos, human emotions, and real life situations. Johannes’ story helps us remember that more than one person is involved in every medical event. Gibraltar, The Story of My Heart is a fascinating and incredibly detailed account of one man’s experience as a heart patient—an experience that will be extremely helpful to others who face the same journey.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NorLights Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47075951444208,"sku":"2940152094381","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940152094381_p0.jpg?v=1764021717","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940152094381","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
