""This memorable work is an emotional and intellectual journey of how pain and suffering can coexist with love and hope. Chaudhry's personal narrative strikes a chord, prompting us as readers to engage in vital conversations about our organ donation choices with those we hold dear."" - Simonne Weeks, Director of University of Brighton's Donor Research group""Thank you, Aisha, for writing up this informative and thought-provoking life journey. Your mom's life was beautifully described in the book. I hope through your book, many of your readers will acknowledge the need to register as potential organ donors and be the messengers of the ""Gift of Life"" message. - Dr. Agimol Pradeep Senior Transplant coordinator & BAME Organ & Stem Cell Donor CampaignerAisha and her family embarked on an incredible journey to save their mother, but their journey continues to save other people's lives, and it is our collective societal responsibility to provide companionship on this journey."" - Gurch Randhawa PhD FFPH DL, Professor of Diversity in Public Health & Director, University of BedfordshireInherently, the message is a call to action for health equity, raising awareness of organ donation and the difference 'a gift of life' can make in communities most disadvantaged in access to transplantation. Aisha brings attention to wider issues related to equality and justice in society. - Shivani Sharma Professor of Health Equity and Inclusion Aston University""Aisha's story is important on so many levels. It depicts the lives of a loving family through the normal challenges of life, as well as the stress of illness and the grief of loss. It demonstrates the importance of families having the important conversation about organ donation, especially those with Asian heritage because there are currently less opportunities for them to receive a lifesaving transplant.""- Karen Rockell, Patient Co-Director, Liver Transplant Recipient and Co-Director. UK Organ Donation and Transplantation Research Network""A touching and beautifully written real-life story underlining the need for more donors especially from various ethnic groups. I hope it inspires people to consider themselves as donors to give the Gift of Life."" - Frank J.M.F. Dor Consultant Transplant Surgeon""Most patients on the transplant list from South Asian communities will die waiting due to the dearth of donated organs from members of these communities; no one should go through what she, and her family went through. - Dr Mansur Ali, Cardiff University, UK
