I missed the first 30 minutes, and the last 30 were just fucking depressing.

They've had patients die, but never as a direct result of the choices they made to try to cure them. For example, when Foreman got really sick in season 2, the police officer who had the same disease before Foreman died because they didn't figure out the cure in time. Tonight's patient died solely because the choice of doing radiation killed the immune system needed to kill the infection.

Didn't Chase get in some trouble for a decision that adversely effected a patient? I think it was last year... So, I would think Foreman might be in some trouble, right?

Yeah I forgot about that. He forgot to do a certain test on a woman who was experiencing stomach problems, if I'm remembering correctly. I guess I was talking about the differential diagnosis process the team goes through; Chase's screwup occurred during clinic duty.

They still didn't want to pin this one on House though, Foreman took the fall.
Some good moments with Foreman and his Mom though, and its always good to see Roc back in the house!

This is something completely different where they were still trying to do the best thing based on what they thought the diagnosis and treatment were.
In the first season, a baby died that had been infected from a hospital stuffed animal as well. There's probably been another 1 or 2 that I can't remember.

They've lost numerous patients over the years, but they can't let it go too often for obvious reasons. Still, depressing.
And the one where Chase went under review was about

I really thought Hugh Laurie did a great job with the scene where he wanted to perform the procedure on the girl before she died, but Foreman convinced him to wait.
