Would you like to consider organ donation?\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn Anatomy of a Yes, Bishop Brent Whetstone - chaplain, advocate, and voice for rural health equity - takes readers to the quiet corners of Appalachian hospitals, where faith and medicine meet the limits of time. Through vivid narrative and field notes drawn from years of frontline work in organ and tissue donation, Whetstone captures the fragile, human moments between loss and legacy.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nSet against the backdrop of Appalachia's complex beauty and its deep-rooted mistrust of healthcare systems, this book explores what it means to serve, to listen, and to help families find meaning in their most painful hour. Each chapter offers an unflinching look at the decisions families make, the cultural barriers that shape them, and the sacred intersection of death, dignity, and the gift of life.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nPart memoir, part social reflection, and part public health witness, Anatomy of a Yes reveals the unseen world of donation advocacy - a world where data and compassion must coexist, and where one person's \"yes\" can echo through generations.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThis is not just a book about organ donation. It is a meditation on humanity, hope, and the quiet courage of those who say yes when everything in them aches to say no.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nKey ThemesOrgan and tissue donationRural and Appalachian health disparitiesHealthcare ethics and advocacyFaith, grief, and meaning-makingPublic health storytelling and narrative medicine\n\u003cbr\u003e\nComparable TitlesWhen Breath Becomes Air - Paul KalanithiBeing Mortal - Atul GawandeTuesdays with Morrie - Mitch AlbomThe Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down - Anne Fadiman\n\u003cbr\u003e\nTarget AudienceReaders of medical memoirs, chaplaincy stories, public health professionals, rural health advocates, clergy, and anyone who believes that hope can still be found in hospital hallways and human connection.","brand":"Inland Sea Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53795196272982,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9798218858353_1.jpg?v=1781807098","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/brent-whetstone-anatomy-of-a-yes-9798218858353","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
