DOOGIE HOWSER, M.D. (September 1989 - July 1993) --
season 3, episodes ? -- "Doogie Howser has
left the
building" parts 1 and 2 In this emotional piece, James Morrison plays Mr. Stevens. Stevens is the father of a child patient dying of leukemia -- even as his wife is about to deliver another child. Having survived leukemia himself, Doogie champions the child despite the hospital's inability to find a bone-marrow donor.
"My son is
dying of leukemia, and your giving him, what, a 20000 to one
shot? Is that the best you've got?" As one child with little
chance of survival lies in another room, Stevens coaches his wife
through labor and the miracle of birth -- a miracle that could
prove twofold if Doogie Howser has anything to say about it.
