Still Beating

A diagnosis of congestive heart failure changes the relationship with the body in ways that are hard to explain — every exertion measured, every symptom weighed. The writers gathered here know that terrain, and they navigate it without flinching.

Inside this volume

Fifty accounts trace life with heart failure from the diagnosis and its initial shock, through the adjustments of medication, diet, and reduced activity, to the rhythms people eventually find. Some write of significant recovery; others write of learning to live fully within new limits. Both kinds of story are here.

Who it's for

For patients living with heart failure, the partners and caregivers beside them, and anyone seeking the company of people who understand the particular weight of this condition.
