Sinopsis

The gift of life through organ donation is truly a miracle. To be on the receiving end of this amazing gift is life changing, but the journey to get there can be daunting. You pray for an organ to save your life, knowing it means tragedy and death for another family. A kidney or liver can also come from a living donor, if someone is willing to undergo surgery and have their healthy organ removed, a selfless gift to save another human.In this collection, 25 different authors share their stories of hope, kindness, despair, and healing. These transplant recipients, living donors, and donor familiesâÇÖ lives have all been changed because of organ donation. Each chapter will tug at your heartstrings as you read about people struggling to stay alive, and ultimately relying on the generosity of another human being, or the kindness of a beautiful soul and their grieving family.áBrenda E. Cortez is a living kidney donor, creator and author ofáHowl the Owl« and the childrenâÇÖs book series. Her books inspire kindness, helping others, and organ donation awareness. Brenda was inspired to donate her kidney to another mom after a brief conversation at their childrenâÇÖs school. Six months later, in March 2005, Brenda became a living kidney donor, and it forever changed her life as she found her true purpose in life-organ donation awareness.áTo learn more about Brenda and her writing, visit www.howltheowl.comVisit the website for this book: www.becauseoforgandonation.comá'Organ Donation is simply the greatest gift one human being canábestow on another.
