Saw this book in the library - it was the clever title and jacket art that caught my eye and aroused my curiosity. I checked it out and was rewarded with an honest, poignant, and inspiring account of love the second time around and surviving heart disease. If you enjoy reading Ruth Rheichls memoirs, then this should delight you.

Having recently been diagnosed with high cholesterol,the title of this book caught my eye. The story was interesting, sympathetic, scary. I like the idea of blending recipes with a memoir, but I was utterly shocked at the ingredients in the recipes - butter, eggs, butter, eggs...um...isn't that part of the problem? Still, I enjoyed the story and wish the author and her husband only the best in health.

good info on what can happen if you don't take of yourself,story not spiritual enough -a good read though
fast delivery

GOD BLESS

. . .I could not help but get frustrated at the way Ms. Ross portrays her husband. She paints him as if he were a dog or a developmentally disabled child. You understand wanting to feel sympathy for this couple as they journey through and beyond a near-death experience. Unfortunately, she makes us feel more sorry for him for being married to someone who (albeit probably inadvertently) seemingly disrespects him.
