Storyline
| Plot Summary |
John and Debbie Challender have been trying to conceive a child for 10 years. Because this hasn't worked they adopted a son, but Debbie still feels she has missed out on something, not knowing what it's like to feel life inside of her. They decide to seek treatment from a so-called "miracle doctor" Ash at Irvine University. Although John doesn't like the doctor they go ahead with the treatment, which almost kills Debbie. All ends well, though, and they become the parents of another son. Meanwhile, the office manager of Dr. Ash's clinic become more and more suspicious when she finds out that some of his nurses are not licensed RNs. Written by Trinity-66 |
