Well Done! by Robert G. Hoffman  5 Stars
April 07, 2007
Janet did a marvelous job of giving an intimate over view of Hans' experience with chronic kidney disease and the ultimate gift of love from his brother. We especially liked the way she divided the chapters with the second part of each chapter as an analogy of Christ and his love for us. I purchased three of them-one for us,one for a dear friend who just received a kidney and one for the mutual friend who donated the kidney. Our friend who received the kidney said that reading Perfect Match was a
spiritual experience. Thank you Janet and thank you, Lord, for inspiring her to write it. Sally and Bob Hoffman

| The Puzzle People: Memoirs Of A Transplant Surgeon
by Thomas Starzl (Author)
Given the tensions and demands of medicine, highly successful physicians and surgeons rarely achieve equal success as prose writers. It is truly extraordinary that a major, international pioneer in the controversial field of transplant surgery should have written a spellbinding, and heart-wrenching, autobiography. Thomas Starzl grew up in LeMars, Iowa, the son of a newspaper publisher and a nurse. His father also wrote science fiction and was acquainted with the writer Ray...
