January 3, 2007 - My dear Yochi,
Girl, you and I are kindred spirits.
I just finished reading your wonderful manuscript, and I stand in awe of you.
Fifteen and a half years ago I was the recipient of a heart transplant. I know what you mean about being wheeled into surgery, taking one last long lingering look at the people I loved and who loved me as those big doors closed behind me...
You are Jewish and I am Christian, but the importance of the spirituality you described was incredibly accurate. After I had been accepted as a candidate for a transplant, some ladies from my church visited me. One of them chirped, "We are praying that they will find a heart for you."
I was appalled. "Don't do that," I said. "You are praying for something bad to happen to somebody else. Pray as I do - that God will heal me, and leave the means up to Him and the doctors...
OK, God, I thought. You know what's best for me. Here I am. I'm yours...
Your workbook is great...
Your book should make crises easier to face for most people. You did a great job with it.
Anyone who gets past self-pity long enough to pick that book up and get into it should have an easier time of it.
A crisis is a crisis, and your book doesn't change that. What it does is provide people with some practical advice on how to deal with a crisis.
Great stuff, Yochi!
After reading your book, I feel like hugging you...
Love, Carl
