the one good idea to come out of my med study haze that i know they will never do but i need to put out there: you know how maddie is technically a geriatric pregnancy, and the risk of downs syndrome is way higher? I think it would be such a good plot point if baby boy han had downs syndrome. like we could get some eddie/madney bonding over having disabled kids (eddie and maddie interactions!), we could get some cute jee yun stuff, more rep for different disabilities. like eddie could have a whole thing where he helps to babysit and he thinks about the time he missed with chris, buck would go on a killer research spiral, the possibilities are endless. I would just like an interesting, long term plot point that isn't an nde or actual death. just nice family vibes.
I LOVE THIS IDEA SO SO SO SO MUCH
You’re actually a genius. The chances of Down’s syndrome in a pregnancy over 40yrs is >1 in 100 births. Like it would be so realistic and and stories with it could actually be so good and wholesome without anyone dying or nearly dying 😭 genuinely could be so good and Buck research binge so he can still be the best uncle!! Finally Eddie and Maddie scenes over this!! Like parallel to Shannon where Maddie feels guilty but Eddie helps her realise that disability isn't bad and that its not her "fault" and all that because i feel like its good to show problematic characters but also learning from it. Also just imagine Jee being the bestest big sister 🥹🥹 Baby Boy Han the cutest lil boy 🥹🥰
