Chapter 9 - Chapter 9 Maxs is new treatment

Helen:" I found a clinical trial. Precision-targeted immunotherapy. It's led by Dr. Panthaki at St. Simon's. He's highly regarded. And unlike radiation and chemo, it comes with no debilitating side effects."

Georgia:" That sounds perfect."

Helen:" It's exactly what he wanted."

Max:" All right Dr. Sharpe gets it done."

Helen:" Which is the difference between me and this trial. Because precision therapy might not work."

Max:" Your objection is noted. Again"

Helen:" Yes, radiation chemotherapy is challenging, but it's--."

Max:" It's brutal. It's-- it's hitting yourself with a brick over and over again and hoping the cancer dies first."

Helen:" That's the point. The cancer dies. Radiation and chemotherapy work. Precision therapy is like gambling your life on a lottery ticket."

Max:" People said the same thing about bone marrow transplants."

Helen:" They also say it about lottery tickets."

Georgia:" Enough is this what you really want?"

Max:" She's right Chemo and radiation they work. They do the job. But they'll break me. No matter how strong I am. I'll lose my hearing, my sight. I'll lose my mind. They don't always come back. And I have so many thing that I need to do."

Georgia:" So let's get in the trial."

Helen:" So lets all get in the trial."

Reynolds and Bloom

Bloom is walking down the hall after waking up in the storageroom.

Reynolds:" Uh, so?"

Bloom:" What? Oh, sorry, I didn't see you there."

Reynolds:" You know an email would have covered it, maybe even a text. but now were here in person you should definitely be groveling. Evie and I were up all night."

Bloom:" You stallion."

Reynolds:" Fighting. Look i'm not trying to be a jerk here, but telling Evie that we used to..."

Bloom:" I know."

Reynolds:" It wasn't cool."

Bloom:" I said I know."

Reynolds:" What you should be saying is 'I am sorry'"

Bloom:" I am. I'm sorry."

Reynolds:" You don't sound sorry."

Bloom:" Look, can we just not have this be a thing, okay?"

Reynolds:" You know what, you're the one who said that we can be friends. This doesn't feel like friends."

IGGY

Shay:" Yeah, so i'm good with the whole voice thing. Like, got it, found it. Fine with it. I've got other issues here.

Iggy:" Oh. Okay. uh, what are they?"

Shay:" Exhibit those. My parents."

Iggy:" All right. Jillian, Grant? Care to elaborate?"

Grant:" Well, Dr. Frome, Shay says he's ready for top surgery. But we--"

Shay:" But they won't let me get it. I mean, how's that for withholding?"

Jillian:" Shay, that's not fair."

Grant:" We have concerns."

Shay:" See, Doc? Issues. I mean help me out here."

Helen tells max about the patient who got a heart transplant with his sisters heart Luna Goodwin. Iggy approves a medical evaluation for Shay. I walk around the hospital with my dog after feeding him. I went around looking for sarah the heart transplant patient. I find her.

James:" Hi im Max's friend i'm also a doctor. And could you please hold out you hand?

Sarah:" Um, Okay."

James:" My name is James tell Max I was here."

Sarah:" Okay. ( What a weird doctor)"

I then go to the roof to have a walk with Chase and to get some fresh air.
