Dear Ms. Jaworski:
Thank you very much for sending me a copy of your wonderful handbook for parents about hypoplastic left heart syndrome. You have obviously put a tremendous amount of work into this book. Although I have not yet had a chnace to read the book in detail, it certainly appears from an initial brief perusal to be a tremendously comprehensive discussion of a complex problem. You are certainly to be commended for having gone ahead with publishing of the book despite being unable to find a publisher prepared to cover the costs for you. Thank you again.

Dear Ms. Jaworski:
Thank you for sending me a copy of My Brother Needs an Operation, donated by the Hummer family in memory of their son Noah. We are always in search of materials to help our families get through these hard times, and this will become part of our regular recommendation for reading materials.
I have learned much from the families over the last few years, and I continually look for ways to help them through the stressful event of cardiac surgery for their child. As surgeons, we are not necessarily trained how to help the family learn or find coping mechanisms, though we may get asked routinely. Do you have any other suggestions on reading materials?
In addition, if you think input from another surgeon would be helpful in some way, please do not hesitate to ask.
Sincerely,

Dear Ms. Jaworski:
Thank you for the kind copies of your newest books. I have had a chance to look at them, and I am very appreciative of you giving me copies. I would be very interested in revising the forward to the HLHS Handbook or its revised name, "Hypoplastic Hearts: A Handbook for Parents." Yes, I would be interested in participating in your newest effort, "The Heart of a Father," since Sarah and I now have a young son, Satchel, who is four-months old, give or take a day or two. Fortunately, he is healthy, but as you can imagine it changes my perspective on all things surrounding the work that I am privileged to do.
Thanks again for your kind note.

Dear Anna:
Many thanks for sending me your book for review. I am very impressed with this book. Clearly you have researched it thoroughly, and I'm, sure would provide not only an invaluable source of information to parents, but also to nurses, doctors and other members of the health care team. There are some differences in the way that HLHS is managed in this country, but despite that I would have no hesitation in recommending this book to parents in the UK. Our centre performs around 140 open heart cases per year - a small handful of these with HLHS. We have not seen any cases of HLHS for a few months now, but I will have your book available for any parent who wishes to read it. I wish you every success with your book.
Kind regards,
Yours sincerely,

Dear Ms. Jaworski:
Thank you very much for the copy of the book which you wrote and published, Hypoplastic Heart Syndrome: A handbook for Parents. The book is well-written and I enjoyed reading it. Time permitting, I plan to send you a more detailed review of the book later on. Thank you also for the accompanying note; I am glad that you liked the preface I wrote in Clinics in Perinatology.
Sincerely yours,

Dear Ms. Jaworski:
Thank you very much for sending me a copy of your wonderful handbook for parents about hypoplastic left heart syndrome. You have obviously put a tremendous amount of work into this book. Although I have not yet had a chnace to read the book in detail, it certainly appears from an initial brief perusal to be a tremendously comprehensive discussion of a complex problem. You are certainly to be commended for having gone ahead with publishing of the book despite being unable to find a publisher prepared to cover the costs for you. Thank you again.
Yours sincerely,

Dear Ms. Jaworski:
Thank you for sending me a copy of My Brother Needs an Operation, donated by the Hummer family in memory of their son Noah. We are always in search of materials to help our families get through these hard times, and this will become part of our regular recommendation for reading materials.
I have learned much from the families over the last few years, and I continually look for ways to help them through the stressful event of cardiac surgery for their child. As surgeons, we are not necessarily trained how to help the family learn or find coping mechanisms, though we may get asked routinely. Do you have any other suggestions on reading materials?
In addition, if you think input from another surgeon would be helpful in some way, please do not hesitate to ask.
Sincerely,
Samuel Weinstein MD

Dear Ms. Jaworski:
Thank you for the kind copies of your newest books. I have had a chance to look at them, and I am very appreciative of you giving me copies. I would be very interested in revising the forward to the HLHS Handbook or its revised name, "Hypoplastic Hearts: A Handbook for Parents." Yes, I would be interested in participating in your newest effort, "The Heart of a Father," since Sarah and I now have a young son, Satchel, who is four-months old, give or take a day or two. Fortunately, he is healthy, but as you can imagine it changes my perspective on all things surrounding the work that I am privileged to do.
Thanks again for your kind note.

Dear Anna:
Many thanks for sending me your book for review. I am very impressed with this book. Clearly you have researched it thoroughly, and I'm, sure would provide not only an invaluable source of information to parents, but also to nurses, doctors and other members of the health care team. There are some differences in the way that HLHS is managed in this country, but despite that I would have no hesitation in recommending this book to parents in the UK. Our centre performs around 140 open heart cases per year - a small handful of these with HLHS. We have not seen any cases of HLHS for a few months now, but I will have your book available for any parent who wishes to read it. I wish you every success with your book.
Kind regards,
Yours sincerely,
