Fans of Grey's Anatomy are always excited for new episodes and the show’s long run has made it a cultural icon!
Amelia Honors Derek's Legacy
The recent episodes of Grey's Anatomy season 21 had an exciting moment for fans of Amelia Shepherd. This well-loved character, had a really significant moment that really showed how important her big brother, Derek Shepherd, really was to her, even years after his tragic passing.
This whole thing starts as Amelia has a lot of her attention dedicated to Alzheimer's research. She's teamed up with Meredith Grey and these two made quite a splash.
Amelia's Difficult Situation
In the show, their efforts have caused quite the turmoil as Amelia's efforts are disrupted due to the current situation in the hospital, having recently gone through some layoffs in season 20, and has new challenges.
- Catherine Fox asks Meredith and Amelia to help with the issue of lesions that developed on her liver
- This throws everything into disarray!
It’s hard when something you care about so much takes an unexpected detour, especially as the show begins season 21 with Amelia coming back after so much had occurred previously!
Amelia's Case Mirrors Derek's
While everything looked bleak for Amelia. There comes a significant case that re-energizes her! It mirrors a case that Derek, handled fifteen years prior!
What makes it such an important storyline for fans to observe?
- Amelia took a surgical route mirroring a special operation that Derek had handled way back in season 6
- A complicated surgical process with insurmountable obstacles that the patient hoped could happen
While these operations had unique challenges, what truly made Amelia's performance and actions so moving for Grey's Anatomy fans? She made a truly heroic decision, similar to how her brother pushed boundaries!
It is as if history has repeated itself, showing just how special the surgical process can really be!
The Impact On Amelia
This significant case had a positive impact. But even more, Amelia now sees it as an opportunity to step out of her brother's shadow. There were some incredible results and recognition given to Amelia that really pushed her into a new era of Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital's best surgeons.
This entire arc of Grey's Anatomy gave such powerful symbolism, helping fans feel even more strongly that Amelia's efforts can stand up next to her famous brother.
Amelia and Meredith's Research
While many had high hopes that Amelia and Meredith could really revolutionize the work done by Derek on Alzheimer's disease. It turns out things took an interesting twist. As that work on Alzheimer's seems to have been superseded.
But here's something fans might appreciate.
These events also served to give viewers of Grey's Anatomy an amazing lesson about keeping one's head high despite these hardships!
- While the research may be affected!
- That wasn't enough to slow Amelia and Meredith!
- Instead the doctors continue on, as if nothing ever changed and pushed through!
