"My Second Chance"
My Heart Attack Recovery Book
I thought I was in control.
Then June 11th happened ...
I was a healthy man with a fast-paced career as a Senior Tech Executive, raising four kids with my wife, Holly, in a quiet suburban home. Then, in a single day, a heart attack that hit me out of nowhere changed everything.
My recovery wasn't easy. It was a long, taxing road that forced me to rebuild my life from a completely different perspective. "My Second Chance" tells my true story, offering both hope and a practical roadmap for other survivors navigating their own journey after cardiac event.
