Ive actually found out it kinda is. It was a conterversal topic that was all over the news at one time- my mom told me, and remembers. The girl did fight for the rights of her own body, and not to be her sisters " keeper." Everything else is fictional though. That's what people mean by its based on true events.
That story is not true, it is totally fictional but there are a lot of incidents like that in which people conceive a child unnaturally because of 80% chance of a match being found, compared to a 20% chance from a brother or sister conceived naturally.
So it will be fair to say that the story isn't true but the plot is true and is based on a lot of true stories.

My sister's keeper is about Anna, a shy 13 year old who is very mature for her age who was born as a donor for her sister, Kate, 16 who has been diagnosed with leukemia at a very young age. Anna doesn't like being a donor at all so at her own sake, she files a law suit and asks for rights for her own body parts to her mom, Sara. With suspense, love and laughter. Together it was an amazing book!
Somewhat. Jody's son had non-cancerous tumor. Listen to her podcast on her website about it.
its called My Sisters Keeper NOT Your Sisters Keeper, and yes it is awesome but veryyyyyy sad.
Kate has cancer and Anna (her sister) keeps Kate alive.
It deals with a lot of serious, mature moral concepts. It also has strong language. However, the protagonist is a young woman with whom other young women might relate.
