The Card That Changed Everything
Luke was eighteen when 5-year-old Hannah became so sick that the doctors said she needed a liver transplant. Their father had left us, and I couldn't reach him. I had already been tested, but the doctors ruled me out as a donor. Luke was a perfect match. "Sweetheart, I know you want to help her. But you're my baby, too. How am I supposed to watch them wheel you both away?" I begged him. "She's my little sister, Mom. How could I live with myself knowing I hadn't done everything I could to save her?" The doctors explained the risks and said they expected both children to recover. The surgery went well.
