A Good Heart is the inspiring, yet gut-wrenching story of raising a child with an extreme medical condition. Susan's honesty and vulnerability will give hope to others and inspire all who read this beautiful story. Have a box of tissues handy and be prepared to stay up late because you won't be able to put the book down. I highly recommend this incredible book.
