Seattle Grace Mercy West Character Analysis

If you watch anything on ABC, you might know of a show called “Greys Anatomy”. A medical drama show that contains mind-blowing procedures and heart wrenching life scenarios. In the show, surgeries and surgeons are obviously the focus because... well, it is more fascinating to watch. Even though the show captures the excitement and difficulty of being a surgeon, there is a certain group of people who have a job twice as strenuous and are hardly shown. That group is the nurses. Although the hard working caregivers are not shown, the producer, Shonda Rhymes, dedicated a whole episode to the hard working nurses around the nation.

Love, hate, life, death, and medicine; the five crucial parts of ABC’s hit TV show, Grey’s Anatomy. Grey’s Anatomy is a show that first premiered on March 27, 2005. The script was written, produced, and even created by Shonda Rhimes. Some people consider Shonda to be evil based on the plot of the show, and I do too. On the other hand, she did create a show that many people enjoy to watch including me. I am still an active watcher even after 14 seasons of this show. Even though I like the show so much, I found areas in the show to critique that include the plot and the actors.

It was near the end of winter 2005, when my grand-aunt suddenly fell ill. In a short period of time her illness worsened and the doctors informed my family, my grand-aunt only had a couple of months to live. The news was devastating to my family as we watched a vivacious, independent, and outspoken woman, who enjoyed shopping, reading mystery novels and spending time with family become very weak and confined to her bed. Instead of placing my grand-aunt in a hospice facility, my family and I, with the assistance of a hospice nurse cared for my grand-aunt in her home until her passing.

The ABC television drama “Grey's Anatomy” written by Shonda Rhimes and produced by Ann Kindberg, is a popular medical drama about a group of surgeons who work at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital in Seattle, Washington. The show focuses mostly around the main character, Meredith Grey, who is at first is a surgical resident and soon becomes a general surgeon, her background story, relationships with others, and her life as a surgeon. The storyline, big-time surgeries/medical cases, intense scenes, and romantic chemistry between the characters make “Grey’s Anatomy” a successful medical show.

Everyone knows the disastrous effects cancer has on a person and their loved ones. Knowing that my mom was misdiagnosed, there could've been a moment when she may have still been here on Earth. During 2005, my mom noticed that something was wrong with her. This realization lead her to go seek a doctor at Lincoln hospital. During her examination, the doctors didn't noticed anything was wrong. After three years she went back again, and Dr. Max Ann examined my mother a second time,but this time he discovered that she had cancer. This

Nobody expects to get cancer. You just see it happen around you, and never think twice about it coming into your life. Until it does. In October 2016 my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. She had it before the previous winter and there was only a 5% chance of it coming back. And when it did, I was devastated. My mom is a very joyful person, she always sees the good in the bad. The hope in the hopeless. The Light in the dark. But this time around

They are also always striving to win the Harper Avery award which is an award for the most brilliant doctors.

The Mayo Clinic, a medical group that specializes in difficult cases, had 1.2 million patients in 2012. This demographic included my mother who sought for medical results. In the event that my mother’s mind and body were malfunctioning, she went to specialists for a logical diagnosis. My family spent two years alternating between hospitals and desperately searching for results. An important assessment is realizing that while patients endure hardships, family members often experience stress and various behavioral responses. With this in mind, my ill mother being in the hospital propelled me into experiences includingindependence, optimism, and changethat continually influence my perspective every day.

When I was a kid, I always wondered why it took so long for an ill person to become well again. I always thought that if the ill person went to the doctor they would be back to normal the next day, but that’s not the case. For some people it took several days, weeks, months, and even years to conquer an illness but as a child I never could understand that. I don’t know how many times I’ve asked my mom or dad how come the doctors don’t get together and make a “miracle” drug that could heal anything and everything. It wasn’t until the age of 15 when my grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer that I understood why it took so long for others to heal and the process that they had to endure in order to be healthy again. Shortly after my grandmother’s diagnosis, I started looking into what it would take to get a drug that would cure cancer through the approval process on the shelf to save some many others just like my grandmother. But I kept running into a dead end. Everything seemed to keep pointing towards chemotherapy and radiation. Although I wanted something to heal my grandmother fast, chemotherapy and radiation was the only solution if I had wish to see her watch me graduate high school. I went to almost every appointment with her to watch how it helped strengthen but also watch as it drained her energy. A month of chemotherapy and a few weeks of radiation and my

My favorite tv show is Grey's Anatomy. Growing up I have always known that I want to go into the medical field and Grey’s Anatomy allows me to see a glimpse into my future. I want to be an anesthesiologist and, although, the show focuses primarily on surgeons, the medical terminology you learn is pretty much the same. I believe Grey’s has pushed more people to pursue a degree in medicine, which benefits our society because people will never stop getting sick. The show is so addicting because the writer, Shonda Rhimes, knows how to get you attached to characters. The drama is never ending, but it is not repetitive and for the most part it isn’t predictable. A lot of people think that Grey’s Anatomy is not realistic because of how happy the show

Aren’t work and play supposed to be kept separate? Apparently not in Greys Anatomy. This show follows the lives of 5 surgical interns trying to make it into their medical residency. This opening’s theme song, Cozy in the Rocket by Psapp, makes it clear “Nobody knows where they might end up”. This leaves room for the viewer to only wonder, where these fresh faces in the medical field are headed. The readily apparent color theme, of red and blue, prep the viewer to analyze the work professional and personal relationship between the characters of this show.

It is almost time for Grey's Anatomy to return and the new preview is showing exactly what happens to Meredith Grey when she is brutally attacked. Viewers have known that this is coming, but actually seeing the preview shows how violent it will all be for her. This will all go down when Grey's Anatomy returns to television in February. TV Line shared the new preview that reveals it is a patient that will be the one who attacks Meredith Grey.

I cannot describe what I felt when my mom told me she had cancer. I was sad, I was scared; I did not even know if I felt anything. My mom, however, stayed positive and hopeful while I stayed quiet and seemingly apathetic. There was an obvious ironic contrast between the emotional state of me and the woman who actually had cancer.

Grey's Anatomy is the best television shows that ABC has to offer.  Starring Ellen Pompeo as Meredith Grey, the narrator.  Her mother is a world-renowned, award winning surgeon and Meredith is trying to follow in her footsteps.  The show follows Meredith and her coworkers throughout their careers as surgeons, who are trying to balance their personal life with their hectic work schedule. Grey's Anatomy focuses on friendship, family issues, and moral dilemmas the doctors deal with on a daily basis.  The plot, characters, and cinematography make this soap opera addicting.

At the young age of four, I had absolutely no concept of death, it was would take a year and several friend’s passing, before I would start to understand. It was then that the little, rambunctious Caroline became my hospital roommate. We quickly bonded and were inseparable, causing chaos throughout the hospital: Using our IV poles as scooters, racing down the halls, and using our outdoor voices in the halls. I didn’t handle the chemo as well as Caroline did and was in the hospital far more often than she was. We were diagnosed a few weeks apart and were on the same protocol, although we had different doctors. Caroline liked her doctor and I absolutely adored mine. It was my doctor Zipf, after all, who first inspired me to be a Pediatric Oncologist in the first place. I would copy everything he did and take note of all the words and phrases he used so that I too could speak like he did. After starting school, I realized that I truly loved learning, especially scientific topics, and I was even more certain that I wanted to go into the medical field. However, Caroline would lose her fight with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) on a peaceful, cool spring day when the two of us were still in junior high school, despite our circumstances being the same at the time of diagnosis. It has been many years since then but my desire to work in the medical field has remained the same as when I was just a four-year-old girl who simply
