Last Hope at Tenth Episode
Mar. 26th, 2013 10:26 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Time sure flies so fast and we're only 1 more episode to the full reveal! And after that no more pretty and cute doctors to entertain us... T__T *somehow I feel lonely muahahaha*... and most likely our pretty doctor will change his black hair as soon as the drama ends... more T__T. Though he'll rock any kinds of hair styles (given his track record), but I like his black hair A LOT this time hahaha...
Put that aside pretty doctor's hair... let's see... Epi 10 has the lowest rating so far, and I think I know why... It's not because it's a bad drama, seriously, if it's that bad, I won't be making caps for all episodes and look forward for the next epi every week. The fault in this drama is that I think the drama team forget about the audience this time. They're too engross with all the details, I mean, have you ever watch japanese drama in this detail? Even Dr. X was not this complicated and that's why Dr. X's rating was sky high! Starting from episode 6, you'll see more and more complicated medical terms and as you reach to Epi 9, you're flooded by medical terms that you don't really hear in your daily life. Normal people will understand heart attack, anemia, leukemia, by-pass operation. But normal people will not understand glioblastoma (epi 6), myelodysplastic syndrome (epi 7), pancreatitis (epi 9) and many more. I can imagine the confusion and chaos in audiences' brain trying to digest these terms when they're watching this drama on TV, live. Heck, I still have to wiki those terms (and read those wiki more than once) when I watched this drama with English subs (and we better be really really nice to the subbers because they work extra hard for this drama). And FujiTV releases the glossary terms on the website after the drama ends... is it a good move? Who would remember those terms after they watch it. My other guess is that the rating is low because everybody is recording it in their HDD. Ha!
OK, so, Epi 10 is basically continue on from what we left off in Epi 9, so if the audience skip Epi 9, the hell they're going to understand what's going on in Epi 10, thus... the rating... but pretty doctor is really pretty in this episode LOL... as always...


So, Machida president condition is now on the lungs. the lungs' pulmonary alveoli are hardening and the respitory tract's internal pressure is not high, so he can't really breath (something like that... I think)... thus need artificial respitory administer.
K, they can't use steroid, positive (?) ventilation... so they end up discussing... lungs transplant.The brain death lung transplantation in Japan for both lungs, only applicable for patients below 55 years old. Patient is 60 years old, so option is out.
In the midst of the debate, Soejima mentioned ECMO and here's the wiki... I feel that I have to wiki all those terms else I have no idea what the heck they're talking about... so imagine those people watching this drama live... it'll be very tiring to be honest hahaha...


So, here comes another option, living body lung transplant.... i think the rest i'll leave it to subs... they mention something like if they do it, 70% of the lung function won't be back. And speaking of donor, they need 2 instead of 1 because with just 1 donor, the risk is too big.


So, now the question is who'll be the 2 donor? We're left with the brothers who are not getting along at all. One will do anything for daddy, the other one couldn't care less if daddy dies. And even with that, there're risk eg. intercostal neuralgia and out of the cases they've known, none of the patient survived. Then there's also a risk if the body rejects the transplant, and in Machida's case, change of survival is 50% (I have no idea what's the 5 year means though, is it chance of survival to live the next 5 years?).
And pretty doctor's dessert this time is caramelized doughnut. It looks yummy and pretty doctor eat it as if it's... a bagel LOL...
If looks can kill... when she said 'for the sake of making life' and that stare is directed to... Komaki sensei...


So, the media has sniffed out that Machida president is in the hospital and with all the latest condition of the patient... supposedly to be hush hush, eh? All because of that bitchy reporter...
The 'Last hope' line goes to Soejima sensei... again?
And the nosy pretty doctor volunteer to talk to those 2 brothers... because he's the GP...
FYI to Naruse (head center... i finally realized that's his name LOL)... Saito Kenji's son is now hospitalized.


Company is in trouble because of the leaked out. No matter what, pretty doctor insisted that he must talk to both brothers...
Awwww, what a cute family...


omg, the way he sits... it's so straight that you can put a ruller on his back...
So, daddy need to do living lungs transplant, here the explanation is easier (finally, but I may get the gist wrong as well), basically 1 lung = 1 donor, that's why they need 2 donors.
I like this shot.
Pretty doctor is explaining the transplant thingy and they look at big bro's wife and kid because other than the brothers, the other donors are the son and the wife (really? am I hearing wrongly? is it possible?).


So moving on, even if they do the transplant, chance of failure is 20% and to live more than 5 years is 50%... that's pretty... low...
Even there's a risk for the donors? T__T...
Big bro is being realistic here, even if he become the donor, then what? He's a PE teacher. He got work to do. Plus it's 50% chance of survival...
Little bro kept on insisting that daddy is blood related and must be saved no matter what... big bro is even asking are you even sure you want to do it, but little bro seemed to be blinded with his mission to have daddy back to health...


Pretty doctor.. you still see hope, aren't you? That's why you said that they still have time, and ask for both brothers to think about it.
Nosy pretty doctor got the info from Saito Kenji's son that Naruse was the doctor and he knows their secret and the one who can help him.


FYI, 1 bro agree, 1 not. Pretty doctor is brooding over the big bro's situation on why he refused on being a donor. He didn't know which one is the right thing on the position being a donor and a recipient. In that kind of situation, he basically feels useless.


Cute doctor's answer is surprising: Pretty doctor is a GP, there're things that he can't do. And this leads to the poking on Tachibana sensei (pretty doctor doesn't really need consoling LOL). Something goes like, Tachibana sensei is looking at things that he's not looking. Tachibana sensei is a straight forward person that he feels that she can move forward by herself. She scoffed him off saying that she also got lost at times. The observant pretty doctor off course knows about this, it just that Tachibana sensei doesn't show her being lost side to people.


Aww,.. pretty doctor, you're so sweet... he practically say Tachibana sensei that he'll lend her a listening ear if she can't find the answer herself. This way it can shorten the distance between them (?). Then, a poking remarks, because she looked troubled...
Cute doctor quickly dodged him off, haa....


Oo, Takagi sensei's colleague is sick? He got esophagus cancer and he's bounced to 10 hospital, moreover, being a surgeon, he knows what happens to his own body. He's like saying good bye to Takagi. Takagi is offering to do the surgery because he feels that there's still a chance.


Informing president daddy over the last method. But the other donor is still pending... will they be able to get the big brother becoming a donor?
Bonus cap, really, savor it while it lasts LOL...


Yes, pretty doctor is being unfair haaa... Big brother still resents daddy. What had happened there? *pause for awhile* How can he sit that bloody straight naturally!


Nothing had happened, just that daddy is a perfect human. Good at his job, a kind person, always thinking of other people, that's why it's suffocating for big brother to be together with daddy. He never got mad, never in a bad mood, 24 hours as Machida Kyouichiro. In front of daddy whatever he did will always look wrong.


Pretty doctor is saying that big brother is taking daddy as a flawless robot that's why he hates daddy. But has big brother looked from a different angle? Big brother is actually at lost regarding the transplant and he's been hiding his emotion.
Ah, big brother heard what daddy said 'I don't wanna die, I still wanna live'. It's the first time he saw daddy with that kind of expression. For the first time Machida Kyouichiro is a human to him.
But he can't be a donor because he has family. He's in dilemma because of the risk that he couldn't protect his own family.


Big brother worried that if he becomes a donor now, what if his own son has the same illness, then he can't donate anymore and he won't be able to safe his son's life. What to do? When being asked, what pretty doctor will do if he were him, the answer is he doesn't know because it's big brother's life important decision. It's fairly his life experience. He can't entrust this to pretty doctor.
For doctors, they don't take sides, but they can listen to all the worries. (same thing that he said to Tachibana sensei). They will support whatever decision that big brother will make. Oh so comforting and it definitely touches the heart of big brother.
Oh the prettiness... this frame might as well be a magazine spread and we won't even tell the difference...


Poke poke... poke poke... it's starting with, lately Soejima sensei is weird, not like Soejima sensei... poke poke... apparently Soejima sensei is usually looking at things diagonally (?) but lately he's talking about medical treatment system emotionally (sasuga, observant!).


In the next 10 years, how do you perceive being a doctor look like? Soejima is hinting his plan that there'll be big changes in the way how medical treatment is done right now in the future.
NOSY! Look at the eyes! The curiosity and nosiness haaaa... I'll miss this pretty doctor...
Soejima sensei, what did you mean by too late? I didn't catch what Hatano sensei said..


OMG, why you speak German? (It's German or just Engrish, my ear can't differenciate anymore haaaaa)


Komaki sensei, I think you should listen to your wife. There's only 1 Satoshi in this world and he's already gone. Why Komaki sensei can't accept it and went through all the trouble with his research, just to see Satoshi again?


pretty pretty pretty... treatment continues... Is there any other way?


Ah, he's here. Little brother is prepared to give his live for daddy.


I like what Shinichi (yeah that's the big brother's name LOL) said here. When his kid was born, he decided that he won't be like his dad. It's OK not to be perfect. He'll laugh, cry, and get angry with his kid. He thought that he won't be a donor for the sake of his kid. BUT, if he doesn't become a donor, if he abandon his dad, someday he'll regret it (?). In the next 5, 10 years, he wants to make choices where he won't regret it. He won't be the daddy that Shouta be ashamed off.


So, he'll become the donor.


Bonus, pretty doctor...


So, before the Aitani Takayuki (Tachibana sensei's daddy)'s incident, apparently daddy couldn't stop ... (too long, too lazy), so what's this bitchy reporter relationship with the incident? I still doesn't get it, she's still look like an outsider rather than directly involve with the research etc. ... give up wave flag


Hoooo, toad doctors are now objecting to operate on the president because the risk is too big... tsk tsk tsk... now they won't even volunteer to do the operation ne... bastards...


Naruse Chief felt emotional here, he's sympathizing with the patient's wish and plead to do the operation, with the current team of doctor, he's confident that they can succeed...


The young Naruse is debating whether it's right to do the operation, but if they don't do it a 5 year old boy will die. The difficult surgery, the worries of failure is just path of being a doctor... sort of true... who wouldn't be scared it's people's life we're dealing with here... and the humming starts...


Soejima sensei... what were you doing with Komaki sensei's folder?
Hoooo, so Ogiwara sensei's mom's murderer is Takagi sensei's colleague?
What a small world...
What did daddy saying here? sounds like it'll change everything...


Pretty doctor brought back his memory of his dying mother's pleading to forgive her and Hatano daddy over... what???
But pretty doctor doesn't have the confidence to keep that promise... He want daddy to explain to him the meaning of his birth...
Is he really ready for the truth?


So, Hatano sensei brought Saito Kenji's son closer to his territory... and introduce him to Naruse chief... a test?


So he starts explaining to Naruse chief about the new patient's condition and that he's going to be in charge of the patient's treatment. And we have the whispering over what needs to be done... subs... I was too lazy to translate.
Oh, news flash, Machida president doesn't want to do the operation, he doesn't want to hurt both sons. But without the operation, he's going to die, and apparently he's prepared for it.


But moreover, both of them didn't expect this...

EHHHHH???? What happened here? WHYYY??? This is surprising!


DRAMAA!!!!! What's this??? Why Takumi is on the stretcher again? Why is he crying? *gah, Aiba-chan & tears... me: T__T, let me hug you*

Finale... soon!!!
