This is a short story that takes you on a journey with a woman nearing retirement who suffered through unbearable pain when unexpectedly stricken with a twelve-hour heart attack. She learns she has not only one but three heart diseases to cope with: arteriosclerosis, atherosclerosis & Reynaud's Disease. Open heart surgery became an emergency to remove a large aneurysm in the left ventricle & four by-passes were done to supply blood & oxygen to the heart, by-passing the severely clogged coronary arteries, the Lad being lost to 100% closure. She had to completely change her lifestyle & learn to cook heart-healthy foods if she wanted to live out the six year prognosis. You'll enjoy the narrative on how she accepted the challenge & regrouped her life after months of struggling with old habits & vices. Cooking for the heart became a career while many interesting, tasteful & healthy recipes were generated. Because many friends wanted her recipes, she was inspired to write this recipe book to share with anyone who desires to eat healthy. I am that woman. I hope everyone who reads this book & uses these recipes will benefit from them.Stone, Jo L. is the author of 'What's for dinner?: Narrative and cookbook' with ISBN 9780963530301 and ISBN 0963530305.
