This book is an excellent story about health problems regarding the heart. Anyone with heart disease should read this. As well as anyone interested in health and its impact on oneself and one's family. I highly recommend it.

I had to put my head between my knees several times while reading Perry Foster's Hands Upon My Heart. It's a gritty, fact-filled journey through heart disease. We live vicariously every aspect of it, including the nonphysical. The author demonstrates, with great feeling and emotion, how it affects marriage and faith, and changes not only the patient but those who love him.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book.
Mr. Foster juxtaposes the clinical hospital experience with everyday family drama and flashback. This technique makes for an engrossing and inspirational read. Highly recommended for those who have had bypass surgery, those who know someone who will, or for just those who enjoy reading true stories set within the modern medical world.
