"Steve Parker's story really struck home for me. He exquisitely captures the labyrinthine emotional journey I had gone through following my own severe heart attack. Any family going through a similar devastating landscape will benefit enormously by learning here about emotional healing following a heart attack." -- Carolyn Thomas, Heart Sisters; www.myheartsisters.org

Heart Sisters After being discharged from hospital following my heart attack, I was utterly gobsmacked by how exhausting even the most basic of daily activities now felt. Taking a shower was a memorable example. It left me feeling surprisingly weak, shaky and gasping for breath.

"When the heart stops the world comes to an end. The work of Steve Parker shows us that there is life after the end, after the heart has been attacked by death, and survived. In his remarkable reports and stunning paintings, we are moved to witness the transition from his life before to his life after as it forges its way to renewal." -- Robert Bosnak, author of Tracks in the Wilderness of Dreams
