Must read for family members of organ receipients.

Having a member of your family go through an organ transplant is an extremely emotional experience. This books reinforces your sanity by helping you realize the feelings you have are shared by everyone who goes through this ordeal.While I did not agree with 100%, this is the only book I was able to find on this subject which was written for the family members of the organ receipient. It lets you know your are not alone, and was a big help to me in dealing with the transplant roller coaster.
