Anne Lamott meets Nora Ephron in this entertaining memoir of massage therapist and single mother Ellie’s mission to donate a kidney to an ailing stranger. What starts out as a single act of compassion turns into a four-year struggle peppered with a plethora of bureaucratic and personal obstacles and an unexpected conclusion. Told with humor and compassion, Lost in Transplantation seeks to touch that place in each of us that hopes to find meaning and purpose in our overlapping lives.

Beautifully rendered story of triumphant generosity
"Part memoir, part philosophy, part how-to guide for the altruistic organ donor -- it's an unconventional read by an unconventional woman. Ellie's story is compelling and heartfelt -- and her quirky humor, pink-tipped pigtails and transparent love light up every page. I read it in two sittings and emerged feeling cleansed, inspired and grateful. Ellie describes herself as agnostic, but I couldn't help hearing the words of Jesus at the Last Supper: This is my body, given for you...." ~~Kathleen Adams, Author & Founder/Director of Center for Journal Therapy
