Pictures of my Heart

"I'm sorry, but you need a heart transplant!"

About The Book

Hearing the cardiologist say those words changed my life drastically, completely, forever. As the surgical team wheeled me into the OR to perform surgery, my husband’s parting look was one of fear but also one of “peace that passes all understanding.” Christian said to me, “delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.” Back in 2022, the Torres family was thrust into trial when Brittany was diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy. Dreams were shattered. Relationships were strained. Fear reigned supreme. But through it all, God remained faithful. He was painting a beautiful picture of His sovereignty and working in many lives. Brittany shares her story of how she turned trial into triumph, and how God can use ordinary vessels for His glory.

“You will be struck with God's goodness to the Torres family through the path He has chosen for them. I hope you will finish the book with one overwhelming thought about God: that He is good. ”

“Brittany's story from the moment she was rushed to the hospital with breathing difficulties of unknown origin through the long, tedious recovery blends the honesty of pain and fear with the determination to trust the One who is Sovereign over all. Her narrative gives direction and light to anyone facing disappointment and darkness. ”
