Matters of the Heart

Cardiac Unit

Patient # 30527

Monitored heart.

Heartache, heartbreak

Heart tests.

Stressed heart

Heart-to-heart talk.

Years of pain, anger, work, hostility.

Straight from the heart.

Heart valve, heartstrings.

Open heart.

Loss of heart.

By-passed heart.

Grafted heart.

Heart beat.

Heart sounds.

Relaxing mended heart.

Forgiving heart.

Change of heart.
