He received a life-saving surgery at five years old, but surviving with his condition meant riding wave after wave of innovation to keep his heart beating. The Open Heart Club is both a memoir of a life on the edge of mortality and a history of the remarkable people who have made such a life possible. It begins in the 17th century when Nicolas Steno proved that the heart was made of muscle rather than the stuff of souls, and continues through today, with scientists who are trying to rewrite genetic codes to create the next wave of miracle cures"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Brownstein, Gabriel $x Health. 650 0 $a Heart $x Patients $x Patients $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Tetralogy of Fallot $x Treatment. 650 0 $a Congenital heart disease in children $x History. $x History. 650 0 $a Heart $x History. $x History. 655 7 $a Personal Narratives. $2 lcgft 941 $a 4 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611022221.0 952 $l CXPC586 $d 20210102010129.0 952 $l CVPA586 $d 20200808012126.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20191105014400.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=43BDDDE6FF9A11E9A2D37E2597128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
