    In the movie, My Sister’s Keeper Conceived by means of in vitro fertilization, Anna Fitzgerald was brought into the world to be a genetic match for her older sister, Kate, who suffers from acute promyelocytic leukemia. Because of her sister's dependency on her, Anna is unable to live the life she wants; in and out of the hospital constantly, she cannot take part in extracurricular activities such as cheerleading or soccer. When Kate turns 13 she goes into renal failure. Knowing that she will have to donate one of her kidneys to her sister. The film is interlaced with flashbacks that detail the strong relationship between Kate and Anna, as well as how Kate's illness has affected her siblings' lives. Before the result of the case is known, it is revealed that Kate had asked Anna to file for medical emancipation. Believing that she would not survive the surgery, Kate wants to die. Anna throughout the film has to face the changes that maturity brings by suing her parents so that she can fulfill her sisters needs. In John Knowles’s novel A Separate Peace, the prep school classmates Gene, Finny and Leper experience the loss of innocence through the harsh realties of leaving their childhood behind them and accepting the changes that maturity brings. 
 When Finny breaks his leg, Gene experiences a change within himself. “I found it. I found a single sustaining thought. The thought was you and Phineas are even already. You are even in enmity. You are both coldly driving ahead for yourselves alone . . .. I felt better. Yes, I sensed it like the sweat of relief when nausea passes away; I felt better. We were even after all, even in enmity. The deadly rivalry was on both sides after all.”(53) Gene slowly becomes conscious of the tremendous resentment and envy that he feels toward Finny, who is a far superior athlete, a much stronger personality, and has the ability to talk his way out of any trouble. We witness Gene develop a strategy for coping with this…
