____________________________ • ___________________________"Your situation requires open heart surgery."I heard those words in December of 2003 as my surgeon explained my congenital aortic stenosis. After that sobering pronouncement he went on to explain the surgery prep, the anesthesia, the stopping of my heart, the heart-lung machine that would keep me alive during the operation, the re-starting of my heart, etc. Perhaps you or a loved one has heard these same solemn words recently. I knew he was confident and mentally prepared for my operation. BUT was I? And that to me was the most important part of this –– my mental attitude! I needed support and quickly, not just from my family but someone who had been through this surgery successfully. My husband and I immediately called our dear friend, Stew Leonard, in Connecticut. He confirmed he had the same operation plus triple by-pass surgery at the same time and now he was hail, hearty, healthy and more active than he'd ever been. He said an important part of his miraculous recovery was that he had mentally prepared himself with a very special little booklet he had meticulously compiled. He and his family read it many times prior to his surgery. He called it GETTING R. E. A. D. Y. The acronym and his explanation of the content of each chapter follow:
The next morning, by FEDEX, Stew's attitude improving booklet GETTING R. E. A. D. Y. arrived. We devoured the book and gave copies to our daughters. It raised the confidence level in us all. I read it in one sitting and each page was power-packed. Loaded with powerful mental conditioning thoughts that I clung to, true success stories of people who had "been there and done that" and, yes, even humor. Example? As Stew was being wheeled out of the prep room to surgery, his son, Stew Jr., who now runs his dairy stores, called out to him, "Hey, Dad! Take the rest of the day off!" Five weeks after my valve replacement surgery I was back up at almost full speed. It was at this time Stew suggested I expand each of the chapters of this very helpful booklet with my own experiences, anecdotes and motivating thoughts. I agreed. Now you can receive these two successful open-heart surgery success stories for the price of one. The best is yet to be, the best is on it's way! Tedi Cox Stew and I want to provide you with this very important downloadable book. See what others are saying! | CLICK HERE TO ORDER!! |
