I know that organ donation takes place all around the world every day and it sounds routine. This story shares all the details about the difficulty of finding the right donor and all of the testing required. I have a new respect for everyone involved in this process. This is a fun and informative book to listen to on audible while commuting to, and from work or whenever you need time to pass by quickly.

Wow! Last year I lost my brother within a few months of identifying stage 5 kidney failure. Like many, I started researching if I could donate one of my kidneys or what could be possible.

Rick does an amazing job of keeping the reader/listener engaged. I never would have thought there would be so much involved with an organ donation. I just assumed, get tested, Family is sure to be 100% match in most cases, and then it’s just surgery to swap. It never dawned on me that close family may actually be a higher risk for rejection. Rick’s explanations of the complexity and emotions of the entire process he and the recipient went through are insightful and beneficial.

Definitely eye opening. I’m amazed at the persistence and willingness to keep going.

Great read, have already sent and recommended to friends going through the same.
