probably round ligament pain.

stopping her heart
and placing her on bypass

the device to save her life,

then I could stop bad things
from happening.
357
00:17:22,672 --> 00:17:27,302
But when Melendez died,
I finally realized
358
00:17:27,570 --> 00:17:30,680
that life is not something
you're supposed to control.
359
00:17:32,460 --> 00:17:35,129

361
00:17:36,552 --> 00:17:38,313
Mia and I had everything planned.
362
00:17:38,338 --> 00:17:41,140
Bags packed, alternate
routes to the hospital.
363
00:17:41,343 --> 00:17:44,027
Mia's water breaks at the mall.
364
00:17:44,914 --> 00:17:47,488
Nothing went the way
it was supposed to go.
365
00:17:47,977 --> 00:17:50,579
And it was the best day of my life.
366
00:17:50,732 --> 00:17:53,768
JORDAN: I thought I was ready,
but when I lost Junior...
367
00:17:55,552 --> 00:17:57,720
It took a long time for me
to stop blaming myself.
368
00:18:00,142 --> 00:18:01,877
A year later, I got a cat.
369
00:18:01,911 --> 00:18:03,087
That helped.
370
00:18:03,466 --> 00:18:06,134
You... You lost a child,
and you got a cat?
371
00:18:06,482 --> 00:18:07,716
Junior was my tortoise.
372
00:18:07,750 --> 00:18:09,150
Oh.
373
00:18:09,185 --> 00:18:10,752

374
00:18:10,820 --> 00:18:13,054

been at the beginning of the story,
375

Dr. Allen.
376
00:18:14,413 --> 00:18:16,191
I wasn't the one who left the gate open.
377
00:18:16,965 --> 00:18:18,436
Your tortoise ran away?
378

384

385
00:18:43,325 --> 00:18:44,557
Okay.
386
00:18:44,592 --> 00:18:48,428
There are three surgeries I'm
thinking of using to distract me next.
387
00:18:48,462 --> 00:18:49,996
- One is a gallbladder removal...

394
00:19:08,816 --> 00:19:11,251
Congratulations, Mrs. Stanley.
395
00:19:11,285 --> 00:19:12,786
The surgery was a success.

00:19:12,820 --> 00:19:15,822

I've been run over by a truck.
397
00:19:15,856 --> 00:19:17,924
Surgery takes a toll.
398
00:19:17,958 --> 00:19:20,126
You'll get a set of
instructions for post-op care.
399
00:19:20,161 --> 00:19:22,495
Healthy food choices,
limiting activities...
400
00:19:22,530 --> 00:19:24,664
And I can throw those instructions
401
00:19:24,699 --> 00:19:26,833
in the trash for you,
or you can do that yourself.
402
00:19:26,867 --> 00:19:29,102
We'll give you something for
the pain and some antibiotics
403
00:19:29,136 --> 00:19:31,037

around the surgical site.
404
00:19:31,105 --> 00:19:32,605

what's on your agenda this time?
416
00:20:18,085 --> 00:20:19,652
This time...
417
00:20:19,954 --> 00:20:21,588
I just like you.
418
00:20:22,156 --> 00:20:23,690
So, what are you gonna do?
419
00:20:23,724 --> 00:20:25,992
You gonna keep going to
Art Nouveau parties?
420
00:20:26,026 --> 00:20:27,827
You say that like it's a bad thing.
421
00:20:27,862 --> 00:20:28,995
It's not a bad thing.
422
00:20:29,029 --> 00:20:31,664
It's just not a... meaningful thing.
423
00:20:34,268 --> 00:20:37,648
My bubbe died when I was in med school.
424
00:20:37,985 --> 00:20:40,567
I can't tell you what I'd give
for a little more time with her.
425
00:20:43,323 --> 00:20:45,358
May her memories be a blessing.
426
00:20:48,492 --> 00:20:50,259
(SIGHS)
427
00:20:50,284 --> 00:20:51,718
Family is important.
428
00:20:53,587 --> 00:20:55,833
I have a favorite nephew.
429
00:20:56,542 --> 00:20:59,002
It'll be nice to
spend more time with him.
430
00:21:01,515 --> 00:21:03,249
And a few others.
431
00:21:07,635 --> 00:21:09,569
CLAIRE: There.
432
00:21:09,603 --> 00:21:12,739
The clot is in the lower
right pulmonary artery.
433
00:21:12,773 --> 00:21:13,973
JORDAN: It's small.
434
00:21:14,041 --> 00:21:15,809
Could we use TPA to dissolve it?
435
00:21:15,876 --> 00:21:19,279
Anticoagulants are too risky
during pregnancy.
436
00:21:19,313 --> 00:21:21,281
Maybe we just keep an eye on the clot
437
00:21:21,315 --> 00:21:23,583
and hope it breaks up on its own.
438
00:21:23,617 --> 00:21:26,119
Bed rest increases
the likelihood of more clots.
439
00:21:26,153 --> 00:21:28,655
I think we should insert an IVC filter.
440
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,848
That would trap future clots
before they get to the lungs.
441
00:21:30,925 --> 00:21:32,225
It's hard to know what the stress
442
00:21:32,259 --> 00:21:33,726
of another procedure will do,
443
00:21:33,761 --> 00:21:35,873
but I think we should risk it.
444
00:21:37,064 --> 00:21:38,917
Shaun, what do you think?
445
00:21:42,470 --> 00:21:44,103

Have you seen Dr. Andrews?
449
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:54,914
I want to see if he'll talk
to our oncology group
450
00:21:54,949 --> 00:21:56,683
about enrolling Mrs. Stanley
into a clinical trial.
451
00:21:56,750 --> 00:21:59,146
What happened to dancing
and drinking until she dies?
452
00:22:00,287 --> 00:22:03,022
Well, I think I sold her
on a little pain
453
00:22:03,090 --> 00:22:04,190
for a little more life.

Why are you so upset about
Mrs. Stanley refusing treatment?

She has terminal cancer. She is dying.

553
00:26:42,972 --> 00:26:45,491
She'd catch my eye at Shabbat dinner
554
00:26:45,636 --> 00:26:47,910
and make some ridiculous face
555
00:26:47,935 --> 00:26:49,902

Right before inserting the IVC filter,
569
00:28:42,353 --> 00:28:44,761
I ordered a non-stress test
570
00:28:44,786 --> 00:28:47,488
to make sure the baby could
tolerate the procedure.
571
00:28:47,513 --> 00:28:49,014
That's when I noticed the heart rate
572
00:28:49,039 --> 00:28:51,607
had been getting progressively slower.
573
00:28:51,632 --> 00:28:54,367
So, after we implanted the filter,
574
00:28:54,711 --> 00:28:57,732
I ordered a Doppler ultrasound.

The tracing of the umbilical artery
576
00:29:00,538 --> 00:29:03,071
was dampened with flow reversal.
577
00:29:05,622 --> 00:29:08,458
There wasn't just one clot,
Shaun, there were two.
578

One we couldn't see
579
00:29:09,905 --> 00:29:12,140
because it was lodged
in the umbilical artery.

or I missed something.

be wrong about this, Shaun.

You aren't wrong.
583
00:29:27,784 --> 00:29:31,682
I saw the test results
on the amniotic fluid.

The lungs aren't responding
