One of those episodes I remember years later..

8.7

"Great"

By Parricida, Feb 20, 2008

This was such a lovely episode, again, one of those I have seen many times and even if it is year later, I love them.

That little boy with cancer and Susan - that will be one of the best storylines. Very moving and really the storyline what first made me think that there is so many sides of Lewis and made me like her char.

And Abby's brother - problems with him continue and somehow I feel I am tired of this - there is no way out, this is endless torture for Abby and she is cutting herself out too.moreless
