Usually Private Practice is a bit of a guilty pleasure kind of thing for me, but after this episode I have newfound respect for the writers of the show, but also - if not even more - for KaDee Strickland. Her portrayal of a woman in this kind of situation was beyond amazing. There's only so much the writers can do when it comes to this kind of topics... It had not worked without her amazing work. Bravo, to both writers and KaDee. Furthermore, we got to see a different but, no doubt, great side of Doctor Cooper, portrayed impressively by Paul Adelstein. Amazing episode. I usually am not very affected by TV in terms of crying and such - but this episode had me in tears. Bravo.
