Michael has now started his third year at the Mayo Clinic. Now he is a senor resident and has a lot more responsibility. He has started to feel a lot more confident and is hoping to become the lead resident next year. If I was in the book as one of the residents I would probably be friends with the main characters. They are all likable people who I feel would be good friends to have. I am not sure how I would handle the stress that they have to go through in the book. I feel that I wouldn't get along with Alex very well because he speaks his mind to much and I have trouble with people who cant hold back. Overall I really like the cast of this book and would love to have met them.

Michael has entered his second year of residency. He has been struggling with having to work most of the week and not having any time with his family. His relationship with his wife has changed a lot recently. They both want to be able to spend more time with each other but Michael was transferred to the ER and has had less time now. He also has to moonlight at another hospital because they don't have enough money. One day he came home late and got in an argument about how he hasn't been spending any time with his family. Later his brother visits him and stays for a week. Him and his brother don't have a very good relation ship but it is mostly Michael who doesn't like his brother. During his visit his brother takes on a father role with his kids which makes Michael jealous and sad that he doesn't get more time with them. This causes him to take a very negative view of his situation. We also see his relationship with his kids. He doesn't get to spend much time with them and the book shows that even though his brother was only there for a week he knows more about them than Michael does. Now that he is going into his second year I think he will have a chance to improve his relationship with his family.
The book is about Michaels residency at Mayo Clinic. It starts with the beginning of his residency as an orthopedic surgeon when he is very nervous and confused. I think that he is going to start getting more confident soon in the book. He is going to be with a different doctor soon and I think that will probably be more difficult and force him to grow. I really like the book so far. It is interesting to read about his experience and see how he grow during the book.
