I received an email a while back from Susan May asking me if I would consider reading and reviewing her book. I replied right away and told her that I would be honored.
The book arrived just ahead of Christmas along with a note from Susan wishing me a Merry Christmas. What a wonderful personal touch.
Nick's New Heart is a true story. Susan has written about her youngest son Nick who received a heart transplant 17 years ago when he was only two years of age.
Susan's story is one of a mother's love.
She has completely chronicled the life of her son Nick and her experiences with raising a chronically ill child. She describes in detail the emotions and also the medical procedures that were experienced from the day he was born when the doctors initially had cause for concern.
Susan invites you into her life. She shares with you her highs and her lows. Her story is one of family. A family that is thriving and living life to the fullest. She lives by example and takes away all excuses.
I recommend this book. It is very informative about medical procedures and transplant care. Susan gives such insight into the importance of organ donation. But, what this book is really about is Love, Strength and Courage (as is written on the cover.) Susan tells how they could not have done what they needed to do without the wonderful support system that surrounded them.
You can learn more about Susan and her book here.
