Story132
The first of our organs to form, the last to die, the heart is both a simple pump and the symbol of all that makes us human: as long as it continues to beat, we hope. The Story of a Heart is the narrative of the staggering medical innovations that have given us heart transplants, interwoven with the story of two children - one of whom desperately waits for a heart to save his life.

Story29
Heart Failure Explained is a clear, steady guide for anyone living with heart failure, caring for someone affected by it, or trying to understand a diagnosis that often arrives wrapped in fear. The phrase itself sounds final, but the reality is far more complex. Heart failure rarely means that the heart has stopped or is about to stop. Instead, it describes a condition in which the heart is no longer meeting the body’s demands as efficiently as it once did, either because the pumping action has weakened, the filling phase has become stiff, or the circulation has become strained.
