Chambers of the Heart: Strategies for Thriving in Life and Business - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Jerry Libbin is here to tell you the story of the chambers of his heart-the precious kind in the form of life lessons that help promote longevity and fulfillment.

"He may have been a little stubborn about listening to his doctors and agreeing to a transplant of his heart followed by a kidney-in fact, two back-to-back-and I don't downplay how terrifying these surgeries are. However, Jerry's contributions, sense of community, creative strategies, and the love for his family dictated his immediate and ample cooperation with complex surgical and medical care and returned him to the flow of life." --Gervasio A. Lamas, MD
