Grey's Anatomy Quotes: 8x12 Hope for the Hopeless

Meredith: There's nothing else we can do for you. These are the last words a surgeon wants to tell a patient. Giving up doesn't come easy to us, so we do everything in our power not to. For surgeons, lost cause just means try a little harder. When do you throw in the towel, admit that a lost cause is sometimes just that? There comes a point when it all becomes too much. When we get too tired to fight anymore. So we give up. That's when the real work begins, to find hope where there seems to be absolutely none at all.
