In this, his first work, Dave Reed brilliantly captures the essence of the profound physical and spiritual renewal waiting deep inside us all. Suddenly challenged by the major life crisis of acute heart disease with all its grave ramifications, Reed could have simply given in to fear, or anger, or worse yet, resignation. Instead, we read of Reed's courageous determination to change his life, which inspires the reader to turn each and every page. Ultimately, all who read this uniquely honest and personal self-examination will find themselves sharing in the joys of Reed's transformations. This is a story of almost impossible change, of the zest for life and for living well, and of the powerful new attitudes, which conquer old habits. Most importantly, Reed's story reminds each of us of the true hero that lies within, temporarily clouded by life's choices, just waiting for the motivation and desire to be unleashed. A truly remarkable read!
