Get Me to 21 Summary

Get Me to 21: The Jenna Lowe Story by Gabi Lowe

After an extraordinary four-year battle, Gabi Lowe lost her 20-year old daughter, Jenna Lowe, to pulmonary arterial hypertension - a rare degenerative lung disease - following a double lung transplant on 8 June 2015. Jenna was young, beautiful, bright and articulate. She was South Africa's Youth Hero of the Year in 2015. Her death was mourned by thousands of people whose lives she had touched. During her short but full life, she and the Lowe family raised much-needed awareness around this rare and devastating disease, highlighting the dire need for local access to medication and organ donors. Although desperately ill, Jenna became the face for organ donation in South Africa through the hugely successful 'Get Me to 21' campaign in which she invited all South Africans to attend her 21st birthday celebration by clicking on a link to become an organ donor. Tragically, Jenna died three months before reaching her milestone. In this riveting and brutally honest memoir, in all its terrible truth, pain and beauty, Gabi Lowe shares her family's extraordinary fight to save Jenna's life. Despite the tragic loss of Jenna, Get Me to 21 will leave the reader deeply inspired and reminded of the capabilities and depths of the human spirit. Embracing grit, resilience and never turning her back on hope, Gabi Lowe encourages us to believe that the ability to face darkness lives deep within us all.
