Midwest Book Review
I love to laugh and when author, Mike Cyra approached me for a review of his work I was glad. Mike has worked for over 20 years in emergency medicine and surgery. You may wonder how could someone who works in this field write a humor book. I say, how could he not! He feels laughter can help heal the mind and body and I definitely agree. Anyone who works in such a stressful job certainly needs to find the lighter side as much as possible. His book opens up this hidden world to the reader in ways that will keep you glued to the pages and bring you up front and centered to the action going on. What a ride!
I have often thought of what these men and woman must endure to 'save so many lives.' Sometimes it is not pretty and other times it can be downright hilarious. Written in a light breezy manner, MikeCyra does an excellent job in bringing you right into the action, be it a time where a little girl must expel all her stomach contents or when an off the chart lady decides to use Mike as a punching bag. Ouch! I laughed myself silly and at times cringed, thankful that I was not the one responsible for getting them the needed medical help. I'm not sure I could have done it.
This is true down to life stuff folks. Sometimes our author uses what some would feel are crude words, but considering the situations he is put in I think we can certainly overlook that fact. I believe my favorite story is the lady who had problems with her vines. Oh my God, how can this be true? But I know it is. Unbelievable! I laughed so hard at just imagining the look on both our author's face and the doctor. The way Mr. Cyra told the story was a kicker and really brought the visual to the mind's eye. Not real sure that was a good thing for this tale, but oh the laughs and the 'yuck' it brought to mind was top notch writing. I will surely never forget it.
All in all this is a great read. Mr. Cyra's line of work is certainly a serious one, and this book in no way diminishes that fact. However, thank God he is able to find the humor that helps relieve the enormous stress this job surely gives, and I am thankful he is sharing that with us. You will love this book and I promise you will definitely walk away with a smile. Very good job! Highly recommended.

Mike Cyra can certainly see the bright side of things.
It’s a useful attribute to possess during 20 years on the job as an Emergency Medical Technician, when having a choking old woman projectile-vomit a wad of chewed cottage cheese into your mouth isn’t even close to being your weirdest day.
