Balancing Your Life with Congenital Heart Disease is more than a survey of hot topics dealing with a patient’s life choices; it is an in-depth explanation of the specific issues every patient must face. It celebrates them as a “success and a survivor” while guiding them through life decisions ranging from having a healthy diet and deciding on birth control to advanced directives. Whether they have Simple, Moderate, or Complex ACHD, Balancing Your Life with Congenital Heart Disease can help improve your patient’s quality of life.
