Matters of the Heart

The heart transplant journey can be challenging. Imagine being told your heart is failing and you have to wait on a list until the perfect match sent to save your life, loses theirs. All wait times vary. But it's not that simple; not just a matter of life and death. Now imagine being told you cannot leave the hospital until your match is found. In Matters of the Heart, author Nicol McClendon shares Dennis Thomas' experience of waiting for a new heart while confined to the hospital. This is the story of a man encouraging other transplant recipients while finding the strength to fight for his own existence.
