About this book
Nurses and doctors raced to work on me."She's coding!" one nurse yelled. "She's not breathing and we don't have a pulse!"Although my lifeless body was being assaulted by attempts to start my heart back up, I wasn't concerned. I was still, placid, and unable to do anything. It was like I was outside my body, looking down. Even though a steady calmness held me from fear, one thing was sure to me: I knew I was dying.In September 2001, Cindy Valenti-Scinto, a healthy young woman, suffered a heart attack that was only the beginning of a grueling seven-year journey through heart disease. Four years later, after forty operations and several brushes with death, Cindy received a miraculous heart transplant that saved her life.Cindy relied on the Lord as her strength through all the trials and pain, providing her many opportunities to share His love with others. Her story is not only inspiring-it shows how trust in God provides the strength to get through any "disease" of the heart. Whether you are facing illness, divorce, loss, or another difficult situation, you will find A Heart Like Mine beats with the encouragement you need to seek God's will in the midst of turmoil."Pain never touches just our bodies. From the dentist's drill to the surgeon's scalpel, pain and sickness stick their uninvited noses into our deep places. Cindy Scinto has lived long in valleys none of us hope to ever see and shares one pearl of great price that all of us need-hope. For all who suffer or who hold the hand of one suffering, this book can be strong stuff. But then, most good medicine is."-Dave Swartz, author, Dancing With Broken Bones, The Magnificent Obsession, and Embracing God: Drawing Closer to the God Who Loves You"Impacting and filled with profound, scriptural insight, and spiritual depth gained through years of severe testing, Cindy writes A Heart Like Mine for every person who has ever wondered about God's will and suffering. A thought-provoking read for the serious Christian!"-Dr. Rob
