Already passing it on to someone else says a lot more about how much you liked the book than any words can say, I think!

Hi UK>>>>>Thank you for your summary of the book. I most certainly agree. We do owe so much to this amazing woman and the medical practitioners who made the discovery of the HeLa cells.

Over the past few months I have polled and interviewed many doctors, nurses and others in the health care field. Most have never heard of HeLa cells or Ms. Lacks. It is too bad that the credit to Ms. Lacks and her contribution has not been recognized considering her short life that has give another chance at life for so many. I encourage more people to read Rebecca Skloot's book.

I again thank the author for her valuable research and completion of this well written book.

I will be participating in The World Book Night in the next week.
The book I chose is The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. My event will be giving away 23 copies of the book.

This book recounts the life of Henrietta, the death of Henrietta and the immortal cells she left behind that became the basis of many life saving discoveries in the medical field. HeLa cells are those which were taken from Henrietta's cancerous tumor many decades ago. They were easily replicated and viable for testing therefore they became an important staple in laboratories doing medical research right up to the present. Many have her cells to thank for their treatment and cures of deadly diseases.

Hi Dees,
Greetings to you in Holland!
So nice to read your lovely comments and praise. Thank-you. Happy to meet a reader and fellow greyhound lover. A friend of mine has a Spanish galgo. They are amazing animals and sweet pets. I had four rescued GH's but lost two within the past year and a half. These gentle runners give my life so much joy. A bright light shines every day for sure. Nice to meet you also. Have a great day. -Wisteria
