ER the T.V. Show

[sunnyjohn]

Hello,

I know most healthcare people are not very fond of E.R., but I ws just wondering if anybody watched the last episode. The lady from "Sex and the Cityy" was a guest star. She played a stroke victim.

I really thought that it showed the difference between the nurse and the doctor during that episode. Even though the doctor spoke to the patient, it was the nurse who seemed to be able to "read" the stroke victim's mind, even though the pateint couldn't say a word.

Would anyone agree with that assesment? (Or do most of you think it was way off base?)

thank you Paula. There is no such thing as a fast recovery. None. Nada. Don't be silly.

Hmmm...I don't remember saying "fast recovery" anywhere.

Hello, I've not posted in a while but am a

frequent lurker I love this site

and learn so much from all on board!

I was wondering how many of y'all recognize those "two

ol' panhandling women" on ER as former famous nurses?! :chuckle

They are Louise Fletcher... the infamous nurse Ratched. I love her,

thank goodness she didn't become a wax replica of herself like most

actresses her age have by Hollywood plastic surgeons!

Her "panhandling sister" is Pat Caroll who was the nurse in

Romeo & Juliet on the Broadway stage for yrs.

They've been on ER for the past several episodes and I

hope there'll be a solution found for their situation.

I'm rooting for 'em

I don't know, that synopsis was dang good!! And I watched it!

I agree, great synopsis. If I had any sense (which I prove to myself time and again that I don't), I would routinely record all my favorite 10 pm shows since I so frequently fall asleep during the first commercial break. Plus, one of my other faves, Without a Trace, is on at the same time as ER.
