When their toil was finished, the tie between them was not. Judy was facing her tenth hour in the ER. She was drained, not just physically, but emotionally. She raced to respond to the next siren. They lost the little boy with blue eyes and a cowlick on his head, and with him she lost a long-standing internal fight. She resigned from the hospital, walked out on her alcoholic husband and went home to Baltimore. When circumstances pulled the three of them together, their lives became intertwined forever
