The Silent Heart

Every year, hundreds of thousands of Americans
survive heart attacks. The journey back
to a normal life is not always easy. In THE
SILENT HEART, author Larry J. Matthews provides a road map of the physical and emotional
obstacles encountered on his personal
journey through the ten months following his
heart attack and cardiac arrest.

In this memoir, Matthews offers an intimate
look into the mind of a heart attack
survivor, sharing the events and his thoughts
and feelings after his heart stopped beating.
Combining personal experience with medical
facts and reflections from his family, THE
SILENT HEART shows the realities of heart
disease, heart attacks, and rehabilitation
as they affect not only the patient, but loved
ones as well.

THE SILENT HEART gives hope and encouragement
to those facing the same hurdles
in their lives by presenting firsthand insight
into one mans personal experience, the
road to recovery, and the goal of practicing
heart-healthy living.
