Molly and Robin Snow are sisters, and like all sisters they share a deep bond that sustains them through good times and bad. Their careers are flourishing - Molly is a horticulturist and Robin is a world-class runner - and they are in the prime of their lives. So when Molly receives the news that Robin has suffered a massive heart attack, she couldn't be more shocked. At the hospital, the Snow family receives a grim prognosis: Robin may never regain consciousness.
As Robin's parents and siblings struggle to cope, the complex nature of their relationship is put to the ultimate test. Molly has always lived in Robin's shadow, and her feelings for her have run the gamut, from love to resentment and back. The last time they spoke, they argued. But now there is so much more at stake. Molly's parents fold under the devastating circumstances, and her brother retreats into the cool reserve that is shattering his own family.
It's up to Molly to make the tough decisions, and she soon makes discoveries that destroy some of her most cherished beliefs about the sister she thought she knew.

I read WHILE MY SISTER SLEEPS years ago and remember enjoying it, so when Kindle had it as a daily deal for $1.99, I figured I’d reread. Barbara Delinsky, a prolific writer, is at her best when writing about relationships. I didn’t enjoy WHILE MY SISTER SLEEPS as much as my memory of the book, perhaps because the story felt dated in how we think and talk about the end of life, when the body exists and the mind is gone. Maybe I watch too much Grey’s Anatomy, but I would have liked more about organ donation.
Still, Delinsky never fails to deliver a well written story.
Somewhat dated
