Cardiac Fiction Egregious Fortune By Aaron David

My Heart & Mind with Sallie Crawley

Today’s episode is going to be rather different; it’s going to be a fictional story. It’s a story of someone that had a heart attack although it is founded in a true story. It’s the first fictional story that I have found about having a cardiac event and I’d like to share it with you.

I came across the author, Aaron David in a Facebook group when I was looking for people to proofread and give me feedback on my book ‘The Beat Goes On’, a how-to support yourself emotionally and practically guide for once you were discharged from hospital.

Aaron agreed, he then told me he was a published author – this nearly gave me my second heart attack as I was then nervous about what he might say. He was amazing and really helped get it just right. In the meantime, I thought I would check out his work and found that he was the author of numerous books of short humorous fiction stories and poems.

When I read his book of short stories “Booky McBookface” I came across this story that I would like to share with you today. It reminded me of how we never know what is just around the corner and how quickly things can change.

Stories can be more than just fictional, they can be metaphors for life. I use them a lot in my hypnotherapy scripts they allow clients to apply their meaning and make the changes they desire.

It's not me or Aaron who is going to read the story but another hearty, Tony Richens-Smith. Tony is also a published author he also wrote “Not Everyone Wants a Hug” seeing the world through the eyes of a dog.

After his widow-maker during covid he wrote his second book “My B****** Heart”, his personal journey after his heart attack. It was when I was listening to his audio book version, I thought I’d ask him to record this for me.

So now without any further ado, I will hand you over to Tony and the Egregious (uh·gree·juhs) Fortune.
