Description

How can a child help her father recover from heart transplant surgery? How important is it for parents to allow their children to be part of the recovery process? What advice does a heart transplant recipient have for others facing being listed for transplant when they are the parents of a young child?This is the first Heart Dad Sunday episode for February 2023 and Frank Jaworski is our Guest Host. Paul Cardall was born in 1973 with only half a heart. He had his first surgery a few hours after birth and two more surgeries at age 13 and 14. As a child, he took piano lessons, but wasn’t keen on practice. As a teenager, he started composing and became obsessed. He was hired to play at weddings, in restaurants and department stores. In 1994, author Richard Paul Evans invited him to compose a musical adaptation of his Number 1 New York Times best-selling novel The Christmas Box, which helped launch Paul’s professional career. In 1999, Paul founded Stone Angel Music, where he released his albums independently. His albums debuted at Number One on eight Billboard charts and have earned over 2 billion streams on Pandora alone. By 2008, Paul's health had declined to the point where he was placed on the transplant list. Following his transplant in 2009, Paul experienced a newfound energy. Today, he lives a very full and active life as an entrepreneur, recording artist, podcast host of All Heart with Paul Cardall, husband and father. Other Links you might enjoy:Paul Cardall's previous Heart to Heart with Anna appearance: https://www.buzzsprout.com/62761/9193481Eden Cardall's page: https://edencardall.com/Paul's Website, Book and Album: https://www.thebrokenmiracle.com/ Paul's Podcast (All Heart with Paul Cardall): https://paulcardall.com/podcastIn this clip, Anna thanks listeners of "Heart to Heart with Anna" and asks them to keep the comments on the podcast episodes coming!Support the showAnna's Buzzsprout Affiliate LinkBaby Blue Sound CollectiveSocial Media Pages:Apple PodcastsFacebookInstagramMeWeTwitterYouTubeWebsite
