Meanwhile nine-year-old Max Johnson had been in a hospital for nearly a year, valiantly fighting the virus that was causing his young heart to fail. When Max's parents received the call they had been hoping for, they knew it came at a terrible cost to another family--in what Clarke calls "the brutal arithmetic of transplant surgery."

The two mothers began to exchange messages and eventually decided to meet"--- Subjects: Biographies.; Personal narratives.; Johnson, Max, 2008-; Ball, Keira, 2008-2017; Donation of organs, tissues, etc.; Donation of organs, tissues, etc.; Heart; Organ donors; Organ donors; Transplantation of organs, tissues, etc. in children;
