I am a heart transplant recipient and this guy described some of the issues that I went through perfectly. At about 9min into the vid he speaks about an annoying sound. To elaborate, your heart fails slowly (in most cases) and it was many years since I had a heart beat that anyone could find. When I suddenly had a heart beat, it would keep me awake! My wife on the other hand was so happy that she would just lay beside me and listen. Anyway this guys vid is must watch
The volume was hard to hear. Maybe is why it doesn't get that much attention. I'm glad I took the time to stop and listen. His wife and daughter are beautiful. Well worth taking care of his second heart in life.💞
This should have millions of likes and views. It brought me to tears
I love how much respect he gives to his healthcare providers (doctors, nurses, etc.). He is a very classy/humble guy. : ) : )
Tears of joy for how awesome you are Derek! xx
