About the Book
Author Lynn Miclea was healthy, active, and strong, surrounded by friends, and enjoying many rigorous activities.
Slowly and silently, her strength, stamina, and energy were being diminished by a condition called aortic stenosis, due to a defect in her aortic valve, which prevented enough life-giving, oxygenated blood from reaching her body. A gripping and powerful story as Lynn dismisses her symptoms while her condition rapidly deteriorates, this is a journey of strength, determination, and self-reflection, physically, emotionally, and spiritually, as Lynn faces emergency open-heart surgery. Through the author's own words, and with heartrending honesty, the reader is taken into Lynn's private world, experiencing the journey with her, through the symptoms, diagnosis, surgery, and recovery, as she grapples with deep spiritual questions, and slowly heals on many levels. Powerful, dramatic, and riveting, moving through fears, insights, and triumphs, this book is inspirational and a true celebration of life. Gripping and heart-felt, the story is empowering and offers many insights for those who face and deal with medical crises, and it is a poignant reminder of what is truly important in our lives.
