"You Can Stop Humming Now: A Doctor's Stories of Life, Death, and In Between" (Encore Presentation)

Aired on Monday, June 11th.

On this edition of ST Medical Monday, we revisit an interview that first aired in April with Dr. Daniela Lamas, author of "You Can Stop Humming Now: A Doctor’s Stories of Life, Death, and In Between." Per Publishers Weekly: "In this ruminative account of treating patients, Lamas, a pulmonary and critical care doctor at the Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, analyzes how the critically ill manage life during and after treatment. She meets people who are neither bitter nor sorrowful about their conditions, but are constantly aware of their precarious states.... Lamas weaves a thoughtful and beautiful narrative.... The author wonderfully captures the lives of those who've completed treatment and adjusted to a new existence." Please note that Dr. Lamas will appear tonight (the 11th) at a free-to-the-public Magic City Books event to be staged at the Perkins Auditorium on the OU-Tulsa campus. The event begins at 7pm and will be hosted by our own John Schumann.
