The book, written in memory of Len’s daughter Claire, tells her story from her father’s perspective. It is also a recollection of the time Claire spent in hospital and how her family and friends rallied around her – and each other – as they came to terms with the tragic circumstances that had befallen them.

Dr Len Nokes, said “I wrote this book to fulfil my promise to Claire and also to raise awareness of heart-related conditions and offer support to families in similar scenarios”.
