This is the first book I have seen that talks to everybody in the family dealing with a loved ones transplant. All the feelings, good and bad are there. Anyone who knows someone going through or is the person going through a transplant should read this book. Personal stories are everywhere throughout the text. Tips about insurance, location, hopes, fears, what to expect, what wasn't expected, and a whole lot more. Questions to ask and who to ask, as well as questions you don't want to ask but will feel better knowing those thoughts running through your head aren't only your's. All the important authorities to know are contributors to this text. There are even movie suggestions while you are waiting, and waiting, and ......

My grandpa had a transplant a few years ago, and my mom was a total wreck! I wish she saw this book earlier. I checked it out from my library, and now I'm going to buy it for her as a present. (The artwork is cool!)

I recieved this book as a gift from the author herself and, despite it being a sort of reference book, I enjoyed it a lot. It was informative without being boring or anything. The illustrations are cute too. If you or a family member is experiencing the hardships of dealing with an organ transplant, this book is great. A+++
