" Chief. You paged? " Grace sided
" Hey. How's it going?" Derek asked as he looked his wife. He knew how he was worried over her and her being pregnant
"Well, the word "Spoon" has ceased to have any meaning for me, but I'm through the first test set. I have a few more consults today, but what's up? " Grace asked
"Grace... I would like to initiate a clinical trial. One that would be the next major advancement in the fight to cure type 1 diabetes." Richard said
"Wow. "
"And I'd like you to participate." Richard said as grace looked to him shocked
"But I am on Derek's Alzheimer's trial, so I don't think I can do both. " Grace said
"Just listen. The basis of this trial was something that I found in here."
"In my mother's journals? " Grace asked
" Yes. She was working on islet cell transplantation when she became ill, trying to eliminate the need for anti-rejection meds altogether. W-with her notes, drսg, and new technology, there's no way we can't take this the rest of the way down the field."
"We?" Grace asked
" Well, it's your mother's work. I wouldn't feel right moving forward if you weren't a part of it. "
" You should look at them both. Just think about it. It's your decision. " Derek said as she smiled
" It's your birthright, Grace. It's your mother's legacy to you." Richard said as grace frowned

"You can't hit her she's pregnant" Meredith said
"Well, my name's already on one of them, according to the chief wait so is yours why don't you do it& grace said as she looked to Meredith
"There's an idea" Cristina said
" I mean, diabetes ... Affects 240 million people worldwide. And Alzheimer's ... Is the seventh leading cause of death. " lexie said
" It's "Sophie's choice." Cristina said
" It's "Sophie's choice." Meredith said
"Huh Sophie" Grace said to herself
