“The Manual more than
met my expectations, and I
still refer to it now – six
months after my heart
attack”
“The sections on risk factors
helped me make informed
decisions with regard to my
lifestyle”
“My facilitator has always
been understanding,
informative and supportive”
“All the feelings and
fears I had, I found
they were common
and it explained why
we feel like this”
