My unlikely survival may leave you awestruck. But my hope is that the story within the story—the bridge between science, medicine, faith, and truth—will keep speaking long after my story is told.

Praise for Held Between Breath and Death
Meet a few more medical doctors who played a key role in my survival... and their thoughts about my book.
Meet My
Cardiologist
“From a clinical standpoint, the odds of surviving a left ventricular puncture in a cath lab, followed by the cascade of life-threatening complications that ensued, were remarkably low. And yet, Bart survived. What impressed me even more... was the spirit with which he endured it all. Bart’s story... will remain with readers long after the final page. I am grateful to have been part of his journey and honored to recommend this remarkable book.”
—Dr. Bashar Shala, MD, Board-Certified Interventional Cardiologist
Meet My
Cardiothoracic
Surgeon
“I thank Bart for the extremely kind words he used towards me in this book, where he told his remarkable story. I am so happy that we were able to help him and that he is doing so well. I have no doubt that the immense love that I have always seen in his family (among him, his wife, and his children) has been key to his recovery. It is the most beautiful thing I have always experienced whenever I have been with them... and still, every time I think of them.”
—Dr. Carlo Maria Rosati, MD, Board Certified Cardiothoracic Surgeon
Meet My
Interventional
Radiologist
“I had the privilege of being directly involved in Dr. Dahmer’s treatment during one of multiple life-threatening emergencies. The events described in this book reflect a level of medical complexity and resilience that is rarely captured so clearly. Held Between Breath and Death is an honest and compelling account of survival at the edge of what modern medicine can achieve.”
—Dr. David B. Cohen, MD, Board-Certified Interventional Radiologist
Praise for Held Between Breath & Death
Meet the medical doctors and theologians who played a key role in my survival, as chronicled in my book.
Meet My Vascular Surgeon
“Survival in cases like Bart Dahmer’s is never the result of a single moment—it is the sum of many decisions, many hands, and a great deal of perseverance. This memoir captures that reality with insight and sincerity. It speaks to the fragility of life, the importance of those who stand beside us, and the resilience required to move forward. It is an intense, thoughtful, and deeply hopeful story, where love and respect for science, medicine, and God live in remarkable harmony.”
—Dr. Shaun Stickley, MD, Board-Certified Vascular Surgeon
Meet My Pastor
“Having walked with and prayed for Bart and Sharon through emergency surgeries, intensive care, and what often seemed like certain death, I witnessed firsthand what it means to be held in the hands of the living God. Their steadfast trust in Him and unwavering love for each other offer a powerful example of hope in the midst of chaos and create a platform to share the love of Christ with others. Held Between Breath and Death is a gripping story that proclaims a glorious truth: the sovereign God is the maker and sustainer of life.”
—Dr. Matt Brown, PhD, Senior Pastor, Germantown Baptist Church
Meet My Neurosurgeon
“As the attending neurosurgeon who operated on Bart, I can offer something few endorsers can: I was there. His clinical presentation was serious, and the road ahead was uncertain. Medicine asks us to explain outliers, and sometimes the honest answer is that our understanding has limits. Held Between Breath and Death does not ask the reader to abandon reason; it asks them to remain curious. That is something I can wholeheartedly stand behind.”
—Dr. Nickalus Khan, MD, Board-Certified Neurosurgeon
I've never told this story to anyone who walked away bored.
I unashamedly love technology, science, and medicine… and my God, the Author of Coherence, who created it all!
Death took my breath away, but God gave it back. And I am compelled to tell everyone about the medical professionals who fought for me, and about my God who made the impossible possible and who offers reconciliation to everyone through His Son, Jesus Christ, so that our sins will not be counted against us.
-Bart Dahmer
