			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://themoreyouread.com/wp-content/uploads/While-My-Sister-Sleeps.gif"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-398" title="While My Sister Sleeps" src="http://themoreyouread.com/wp-content/uploads/While-My-Sister-Sleeps.gif" alt="" width="157" height="230" /></a>This is a story about a family that is centered around Robin Snow, a marathon runner training for the Olympics.  This story is written from her sister Molly&#8217;s perspective, and Molly has felt ever since she was young that she was in her sister&#8217;s shadow, always doing for Robin and very rarely getting things back in return.</p>
<p>Robin has a heart attack while she is doing a training run that Molly was supposed to be helping with.  The family meets at the hospital and spends the next period of time while Robin is in a coma both talking about and unraveling family relationships and secrets that had been hidden for many years as well as trying to make end of life decisions for a loved family member.</p>
<p>I felt that this book had some interesting points, one of them being that Molly became very much of an advocate for clues that she found into what would be her sisters wishes (such as organ donation).  Yet on many other levels I felt that the story struggled along.  Many things were predictable and felt a little too contrived.  It is not one that I will read again.</p>
