ER - 08x18 Orion in the Sky
Summary: While Dr. Greene tries to immerse himself in his work, he reluctantly discovers that his aggressive illness is hampering his coordination -- and watching other end-stage patients struggle with their treatments has a sobering effect on him. Elsewhere: Greene has a poignant reunion with his ex-wife and later mediates between the staff and a stubborn but deluded homeless man; Dr. Pratt, a self-confident new intern, gets some advice from Greene about his bedside manner; Abby can move out of Dr. Kovac's apartment when her abusive neighbor moves away; Greene treats a family man who receives the worst kind of news; an Egyptologist is hospitalized for a rare disease; confusion over an elderly woman's wishes results in heroic measures to resuscitate her.
