After undergoing emergency bypass surgery at age forty-two, Kathy Kastan found her world shifting in unexpected ways. She experienced the devastation of having everything change-her sense of well-being, relationships, daily routine, even her body image. She learned that doctors can help you recover physically from heart disease, but you have to find other methods to recover emotionally. Drawing from her personal experience and expertise as a therapist, Kastan guides you through reclaiming a happy, healthy life-answering questions such as: How do you regain a strong self-image? Grapple with your fears? Talk to the people you love about your illness? Learn to trust your body again?
