Survivor's Remorse: The Healing Power of Faith provides a courageous and inspiring account of the author's journey through the intersection of faith and mental health after his 2019 heart transplant. It was his faith that helped Dr. Arthur D. Vaughn face the obstacles in his path and his journey through major depressive disorder.
