Summary Brenda Thompson is dying from an obscure and always fatal lung disease. After two failed marriages, her third husband seems to be the man of her dreams. But time is running out. Only a lung transplant can save her. And a new lung may not become available in time. When a donor does become available in New England, there is jubilation. But events take an ominous turn when the donor lungs turn out to be damaged. Brian Bethea, the promising cardiothoracic surgeon with marital problems, has been sent to harvest the new lungs that turn out to be damaged. Nothing seems to be going right for him. When Brian returns home, he must explain to his daughters that he and their mother are separating and he has found his own apartment. Mustapha Saheed is in his third year of emergency medicine. At six foot, seven inches tall, this self-described "big black man" cuts a striking figure as he dashes through the ER. Despite the advice of a colleague to not marry the "girlfriend who got you through residency," Saheed makes plans for the altar.
