He had a vein burst in his stomach, and two more veins—one in his esophagus and another in his liver—were on the brink of erupting. Doctors had no idea what caused them to swell, or whether he would live. He spent days in the intensive care unit, and doctors talked about putting him on an organ transplant list.

We got lucky though. His health stabilized, but the fear stuck with me. What if he eventually needed a new liver? How long would we have to wait on the organ transplant list? Would he survive the surgery? Worst of all, someone would have to die in order for him to live.

Shortly after we returned home from the hospital, I began writing BODY PARTS, a YA novel about a pharmaceutical company that uses a foster center as a front to harvest organs from unsuspecting kids.(less)
