Barry Manilow is
best known for such recordings as
“Could It Be Magic,” “Mandy,” “Can’t
Smile Without You,” and “Copacabana
(At the Copa).” In 1978, five of his
albums were on the best-selling
charts simultaneously. He has
recorded a string of Billboard hit
singles and multi-platinum albums
that have resulted in his being
named Radio & Records number one
Adult Contemporary artist and
winning three straight American
Music Awards for Favorite Pop/Rock
Male Artist. Between 1974 – 1979,
Manilow had 10 number one singles,
five of which were consecutive. For
more than 15 years, however, Manilow
has continued his success while one
critically important detail was out
of rhythm: his heart. Manilow is one
of more than 2.5 million Americans
living with atrial fibrillation
(AFib). Mr. Malilow sat down with
Editor-in-Chief Gary Barg to talk
about the art of being in rhythm,
personally and professionally. Gary Barg: Watching you
perform, it is hard to believe that
you were dealing with AFib even
while you were on stage. How did the
disease manifest itself and what did
you do? Barry Manilow: About 15
years ago, I was driving home and it
felt to me like my heart skipped a
beat, which did not seem very
important. But as I kept driving, my
heart skipping a beat kept getting
more and more out of whack. It was
not just a little skipping a beat;
it started to feel like it was—the
only way I can put it is out of
rhythm...continued

No one knows better than caregivers the critical need for
family members to make sure their loved-one’s end-of-life
decisions are known and down on paper before they are
needed. Unfortunately, so often these arrangements are not
documented by the patient or family members in advance of
serious illness or injury...continued At the end stages of life,
do not underestimate the loved one’s need for
spiritual growth and care through local clergy or
religious communities however insignificant it may
seem to you...continued I was just looking at your Web site and reading your
