The book provides much needed insight into critical topics that become part of the day to day lives of heart attack victims. The author laments about the mental side of first symptoms of actually experiencing a heart attack, emergency room feelings, mental challenges associated with dying, physical and emotional thoughts of waking up in the ICU, first day emotional panic, first night death feelings, prescription drugs, and cardio rehab, are all addressed.
"The vast majority of heart attack books are written by health professionals or doctors who speak from their educational background, rather than firsthand experience," adds Fox. "My book speaks to the doctors, patients, hospitals, and loved ones from the patient's perspective, providing insights not often heard." http://www. aolhealth. com/health/feature/_a/heart-attack-survivor-story/20090618181609990001 (http://www. aolhealth. com/health/feature/_a/heart-attack-survivor-story/20090618181609990001)
