Change of Heart: Learning to Trust the Wait During My Husband's Heart Transplant Journey

"Few books tell the story from a caregiver's or loved one's perspective. Lori's experience, prayers, and lessons learned remind people that they don't need to have all the answers. The patient is not alone in the process, and open communication among the whole care team is vital for the healthy recovery of the entire family unit."
-SHELLEY HALL, MD, FACC, FHFSA, FAST Chief of Transplant Cardiology and Mechanical Support/Heart Failure at Baylor University Medical Center

"This is a beautiful account of a tumultuous transplant journey and the strength of family, faith and friends. What a great resource for anyone going through this experience! I couldn't stop reading it."
-CAROLYN STEINBORN, Friend

"Lori shares the journey of her husband going from a healthy man to a heart transplant recipient-with little to no warning. If you find yourself in a season of uncertainty, feeling completely helpless, then you need to read this book."
-TODD SHELDON, Senior Distinguished Scientist, Medtronic (Retired)

"Lori Sheldon understands what it means to persevere when life's most difficult season hits. She shares her emotional journey as a caregiver through her husband's heart transplant . . . and what it feels like to trust God with her whole heart."
-DIANE NICHOLS, Retired Teacher and Friend

"If Lori's goal in "Change of Heart" was to write the book she needed to read when faced with the life or death decision of her husband's need for a heart transplant, her success will be marked by the many readers who find her book in their time of need."
-RANDY HANZEN, Retired Teacher
