My Heart’s Content
By Angela Hughes
An unflinching and captivating memoir about the wait for a life-saving heart transplant and how it feels to be caught between life and death, knowing for you live, someone else must die.
When Angela Hughes collapses in a hospital car park, the news is catastrophic. The only thing that will save her life is a heart transplant.
Over seventeen days, as she waits in hospital for a donor, Angela takes readers on an incredible journey. With unflinching honesty, she recounts what it is like to be caught between an operation of impossible magnitude and its alternative – certain death.
My Heart’s Content is a fearless examination of a life in the balance. Contrary to expectations, moments of joy and laughter are plentiful. Pleasure is in the tiny details. When nothing is certain, and all tomorrows are fading fast, real strength comes with a renewed appreciation of the things that truly matter.
