A patient's history is as important as their symptoms. It's what helps us decide if heart burn's a heart attack... if a headache's a tumor. Sometimes patients will try to re-write their own histories. They'll claim they don't smoke, or forget to mention certain drugs... which in surgery can be the kiss of death. We can ignore it all we want, but our history eventually always comes back to haunt us.

Meredith: Hey.
Derek: You okay?
Meredith: Horrible... I'm in a horrible mood. I yelled at Susan. I think I scared off my fake mommy forever.
Derek: Hmm... need cheering up?
Meredith: No.
Derek: Me either. It's gonna be okay. (They hug)
Meredith: You think?
Derek: Yeah, Susan will be okay.
Meredith: How'd it go with the chief?
Derek: Uh, about as well as you and Susan.
Meredith: We make a good team.
Derek: Hmm...

Some people believe that without history, our lives amount to nothing. At some point we all have to choose: do we fall back on what we know, or do we step forward to something new? It's hard not to be haunted by our past. Our history is what shapes us... what guides us. Our history resurfaces time after time after time. So we have to remember sometimes the most important history is the history we're making today.
