Ever wanted to tell your story of survival? This is your chance to tell the people who need to hear it the most. The power of crowdsorcing is being used to collect 421 great survival ideas to help inspire survivors of heart-related illnesses to successfully "survive surviving" and lead long and healthy lives. The period after a heart attack or cardiac surgery can be remarkably chaotic. Information is hard to get, let alone digest. Survive Surviving intends to calm that chaos and provide a healing resource for those suffering through their recovery ... provided by those who have experienced it first-hand.
Successfully surviving a heart illness means something different for everyone. In fact, the internet and bookstores are filled with compelling accounts of heart attacks, compassionate care groups and even inspiring stories of survival. Survive Surviving differs in that it takes the innovative approach of viewing successful surviving through the prism of four essential factors and asks real survivors to describe what it all means to them. Survive Surviving will then take the best of the very best of these valuable insights and offer them in a one-of-a-kind, single, compelling and informative compendium that will benefit those recovering. Survivors like yourself are being asked to share:
1) What was the spark that made you realize that you needed to change in order to survive?
2) What did you have to do to start the process of surviving?
3) What has your survival been like?
4) How did you realize, in some cases, that what you were doing to survive was no longer working, and how have you adapted? The best of the very best stories will be chosen by people in the know, from fellow heart patients to nationally recognized cardiologists, and presented in an easy-to-read compilation of soulful, motivating and adaptable survival tips. Real and unique tools that people with heart illness can use to change and extend their lives.
Ever dream of becomming a nationally recognized published writer? Here's your chance, and with a big bonus; participating in this crowdsoucing book book might, literally, save lives ... maybe even your own when you do a little self-exploration.
