This is a story of a fearless family surrounded with undying love for each other. At the beginning, the parents had a daughter named Kate which unfortunately has leukemia. They asked the doctor what possible ways they can do for her to survive because no one in their family and relatives is compatible to her. The doctor told them one possible way but it is somewhat not allowed by the law. But they still insisted, they made a test-tube baby girl named Anna that will match all the genes and can be called a donor baby. They can use her to provide all the necessary things for Kate’s body. Even if Anna is still 5 years old, she grew experiencing surgeries for bone marrow aspiration, lymphocytes and many more needed for Kate, her sister. She was her sister’s keeper.
Time passed by and Anna grew older. One day, Kate requires a kidney to survive so her mother told Anna that she will donate one of her kidney for her sister. She was 11 years old that time and she already makes her own decisions. One day, she went to a law firm and asked for help because she really wants to be free of medical surgeries that started when she was still young. She wanted to have the right of controlling her body. The attorney accepted it because he knew the feeling of not controlling your own body; he was epileptic. But that doesn’t mean that she doesn’t want to help her sister survive her cancer. She really loves her sister and Kate even shares her love stories to her. They were really close with each other and they call each other sissy. But one day, Kate told her that she already wanted to die. She told Anna that it is okay for her if she will not donate something to her. Kate was really thankful for all that Anna gave. When it was Kate’s birthday, they are having a small gathering. In the end, Kate died but the family still continued their life.
This is such a great movie. I just watched this a few days ago and it really touched my heart. Well, I was about to cry but I didn’t. It is not about having medical emancipation or Anna winning the case. The point is Anna having a sister. A sister that will love and care for her forever, even if she already stays in heaven. For me, I’m really thankful that I have three sisters that assist me in my difficulties. They aid me emotionally and spiritually. I grow and learn with them. I have great experiences with them beside me. They teach me lifetime lessons and I know will be in my mind and soul forever. Thanks God for giving me such wonderful sisters.
