While You Were Asleep peels back the sterile curtain of the hospital to reveal the raw, unfiltered reality of life as a surgical resident. From a skateboarder who flinched at the sight of blood to a trauma surgeon making split-second decisions in the middle of the night, Ryan McPherson takes you on a gripping journey through medical school, residency, and the human cost of becoming a surgeon. With humor, heartbreak, and brutal honesty, he recounts the midnight codes, the unbearable losses, and the strange beauty found in the chaos of the hospital. These are the stories that happen while patients are under anesthesia, and while the rest of the world is asleep—moments that change lives forever and leave scars, both seen and unseen.
Whether you're fascinated by medicine, or simply drawn to human stories of growth and grit, this memoir offers an unforgettable look behind the scenes into the making of a modern surgeon.

Thank you for your reply. I have never done this before and am not sure if I am doing it correctly. Per #15 in the link you sent, I am BUMPing. I know you are very busy. Thank you.
