I was happy and surprised that Anna won her case. I think that Campbell was a good attorney and represented her well. He presented good points to why Anna's donations were unfair and too much. He compared Anna's case to that, stating if a house was on fire and one of your children was in it and your other child was the only one that knew the path to take to find her would you sacrifice her and send her in the building? He reasoned that the risks were high you could lose both of them, you could save both of them, or one could be injured/dead while the other survives. He pointed out that risking Anna could take its toll one day.
I was really shocked to hear that Kate wanted to die . I knew the pain she was in with all the treatments, chemo, and transfusions but she held on for 16 years and why waste 16 years of struggle. I was not shocked to find out that the reason Anna filed medical emancipation was for her sister and not just her own attention. I thought and realized that Anna was being helpful not selfish.
The entire book I though Kate was going to die because Anna's lawsuit would pass for the medical emancipation, but when I read that Anna died in a car accident, I was simply shocked. Turning the table of the plot when the reader expects it the least made the novel very interesting.It would have been a different world if Anna never filed a lawsuit and just donating her liver to Kate. They probably would have both survived and live happily ever after.
