ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
“My Sister’s Keeper” by Jodi Picoult follows the story of Anna Fitzgerald, a 13-year-old girl who sues her parents for medical emancipation. Anna was conceived to be a genetic match for her older sister, Kate, who has leukemia. Over the years, Anna has endured numerous medical procedures to help Kate survive, but as she grows older, she struggles with the emotional and physical toll of being used as a donor. The novel explores complex themes of family dynamics, ethical dilemmas surrounding medical decisions, and the conflict between personal autonomy and familial love.
