Book Description
Lauren had it all together. An awesome husband, a flourishing career as a doctor, all the sleep she ever wanted, and socks that always matched. Then Lauren had a baby, and from that point forward, having it all together felt like a distant memory. The perpetual pile of laundry at home was just as tall as the perpetual pile of unfinished charts at the office. Four hours of uninterrupted sleep during an overnight call shift felt like a holiday. Mystery splotches, not cute earrings, accessorized every outfit. She had previously managed to commit 310 clinical practice guidelines to memory, yet she would now forget her four-item grocery list. And her son's first birthday. When she began repeatedly showing up to work with maple syrup in her hair and only one sock on (if she was lucky), she realized that life would never be the same. She would probably never find that second sock, and it was now acceptable that eczema lotion coated everything she owned thanks to her toddler's curiosity. In a series of bright and witty paintings, Life as a Doctor Mom depicts the day-to-day happenings that occur while juggling motherhood and medicine, yet is relatable to all moms regardless of their profession. There's very little reading required - a perfect distraction for when you're wearily lying awake at 3:00 AM wondering why neither your toddler nor your patient have pooped in five days.

Book Description
An urgent, on-the-scene account of chaos and compassion on the front lines of ground zero for Covid-19, from a senior doctor at New York City’s busiest emergency room “Remarkable and inspiring . . . We’re lucky to have this vivid firsthand account.”—A. J. Jacobs, bestselling author of The Year of Living Biblically When former New York Times journalist Dan Koeppel texted his cousin Robert Meyer, a twenty-year veteran of the emergency room at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx, at the beginning of the Covid-19 crisis in the United States, he expected to hear that things were hectic. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being overwhelmed, where do you think you are? Koeppel asked. Meyer’s grave reply—100—was merely the cusp of the crisis that would soon touch every part of the globe. In need of an outlet to process the trauma of his working life over the coming months, Meyer continued to update Koeppel with what he’d seen and whom he’d treated. The result is an intimate record of historic turmoil and grief from the perspective of a remarkably resilient ER doctor. Every Minute Is a Day takes us into a hospital ravaged by Covid-19 and is filled with the stories of promises made that may be impossible to keep, of life or death choices for patients and their families, and of selflessness on the part of medical professionals who put themselves at incalculable risk. As fast-paced and high-tempo as the ER in which it takes place, Every Minute Is a Day is at its core an incomparable firsthand account of unrelenting compassion, and a reminder that every human life deserves a chance to be saved.
