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.

This book is seeming more and more interesting. It's kind of sad that his brother knows more about Michael kids then he dose because he is working so much.
