  • The twist in this episode is like NONE that I have seen in a House episode before.
    Without giving away too much, this episode was surprisingly accurate. It should be shown to anyone who says House MD is totally unreal!
    We go through certain themes in S2E5:
    Neurofibromatosis type 2
    Lying to family
    Spinal cord compression
    Transverse myelitis
    Entamoeba histolytica
    Giardiasis

    In the Goiânia incident, a child died, the daughter of one of the Worker's Brother who found the "metal piece". He gave to her, she played with the piece and leave in her room (under her bed) and she ingested a little with her breakfast. This case has more to do with the Goiânia incident than is thought.

    I've always taken it that the end of the episode is not the father lying to his son again, but rather having faith that his son will pull off a miracle come back and survive. They said it was "unlikely" not a certainty that the son would die. So the father was having faith his son could fight his way back as long as he didn't give up.

      Hi Blacksheep,
      That definitely is a better/kinder interpretation of it! I hadn’t seen it that way since the father didn’t have the best track record of telling the truth. I’d probably still lean toward my interpretation because of the certainty the father told his son he’d make it through. Either way thanks for bringing this to our attention and look forward to more valuable comments from you in the future :)

    When I was little my dad had a Quink ink bottle filled with Mercury that I used to play with, it was fascinating how it behaved... I'm sure he didn't realise how poisonous it is. I've survived to my sixth decade! Lol... unfortunately one of my colleague's children didn't survive their toddlerhood (working with heavy metals, lead/tin/antimony and volatile cancerous inks), the kiddies used to run for cuddles as soon as daddy came in the house before he'd showered or changed work clothes, unfortunately little bodies have less resistance to these substances and baby got sick and died. I rant at anyone who whinges about "Health and Safety Gone Mad"... it's awful when adults die doing their job, let alone innocent kids x

    There have been many real life incidents where orphan sources have shown up at scrap yards. Even in one case it had been sold off and melted down into a new batch of steel rebar without being noticed. It was only detected when a truck carrying a bunch of it took a wrong turn at Los Alamos and entered the National Laboratory site which being a nuclear facility had radiation detectors at the gates to the site. Once discovered it was tracked back to the steelworks and the metal traced back to a scrapyard in Juarez.

    Like the episode, this video was great.
    This is one of the most heartbreaking episodes, because the patient didn't die by his or his father lies, but by his father's love, and I'm really attached to my father, so this episode give me the chills everytime (this one and "Painless", ho boy, how I want you to see this episode xD).
    And yeah, this episode is truly accurate, I live in Brazil and the Cesium-137 case is a popular piece of history, it's basically as you said, don't play with shiny toys or do 70k X-Rays per year and we'll be fine :D
    I read the other comment, I don't mind you following the list of episodes since season 1 (episode 2 itself is crazy), there're some very few exceptions, but I enjoy every house episode, easily one of the best series of all time.
    And about recommending a more recent series, there's an Italian medical series called "Doc Nelle Tue Mani" or "Doc In Your Hands" (I dunno how the series is called in UK, I watched on amazon prime), it's very inspired in House with patients with rare zebras, but the first season is very soap opera-ish, I think they almost nailed in second season, it's about one of the best Italian doctors (but also one of the most douches) that - because of a framing - he was shot in the head, and lost 12 years worth of memories, and he goes back as colleagues of people who hated him as boss (but they eventually get along, bluh bluh bluh).
    Anyway, I'm recommending S2E09 - Streghe/Witches and S2E13 - Cosi' Lontani, Cosi' Vicini/So Far, So Close. It's usually 2 patients per episode, so 2 diagnosis to deal with, enjoy!

    I think the lying to your kids thing is more about nuance and empathy than any sort of logical or moral issue tbh. There are a number of instances where blind kindness and pity can cause more harm than good, but there are also a number of circumstances where being brutally honest can as well. Tact can really only take you so far. Would you tell your children from the first time that there is no such thing as Santa and deny them their youthful naïveté simply to be fully honest always? They won’t have the classic experience of realizing your parents were lying to your face for years, but they also won’t have the coming of age moment as an adult where they understand why they would do so. There are a number of ways to do this as well, such as lies of omission, or deflection. It doesn’t always take an overt fallacy to answer a child’s concern.
    Many people would argue that consideration and compassion are paramount qualities for the process of nurturing a developing child, far more so than blunt empiricism. But in reality, it calls on the parent to weigh the circumstances and the needs of the individual, bc everybody is built different and needs different things. The parent/child dynamic is less black and white than it might seem, so there isn’t one simple answer for every situation.
    Then again, my mother was constantly lying and manipulating to cause as much pain and drama as possible to everybody around her, and regularly told me shit like “if you don’t learn how to lie to people you’re going to die cold and alone.” So what the hell do I know in truth lol

    Relating to the appreciating your parents bit at the end: are you sure that was reassuring? I honestly don't think house's mom was saying something nice to him. I think she was being sarcastic. "You're perfect in every way" said in the tone she used was not meant to be a positive thing. House knows he's far from perfect, but he acts with the arrogance of someone who believes he can never be wrong, and his mom knows it just as well. That statement of hers was a backhanded compliment. Based on words alone, it sounds like something a mom would say. But with the tone and knowledge of who her son is? Definitely meant as a criticism, because he criticizes his dad as if he himself has no similar flaws.

      Your political bias is showing lol, and tbh i just don't think you understand how the US system is different from others. Now, i'm not denying that you had to wait all that time to get treatment, which obviously shouldn't happen, but that's not how it is for EVERYONE in the US. The difference between the US system and more socialist systems of healthcare, where treatment is "free" is that there's a privatized and monetary basis behind the US system. Meaning that while poor people do get screwed and will have to wait as long as say, UK people for example, people willing to fork over more money WILL get faster and better treatment here. If you had been willing to pay more and had top tier insurance, then i can personally attest to the fact that you will get to see specialists easier, faster, and will receive attention, tests, and treatment in a much more timely manner. In fact, if you're wealthy enough, you could hire a whole team of doctors to work on just you 24/7, and this is one of the very few countries on earth where you can still do that. I'm not saying it's right, but you do have an option to get better treatment here if you're willing to pay, which is what makes the US system different from others, and why wealthy politicians don't want to change it, because they can get tier 1 treatment still.

    Okay, so from a radiation worker(me) Carnell was not radioactive, People do not become radioactive unless some of the material is ingested or inhaled. Carnell was exposed to a radioactive source of Gamma or Nuetron radiation, Alpha and Beta particles cannot penetrate clothing, so even a T-shirt would protect against those forms of radiation. Carnell would be completely safe for medical professionals and visitors. The radiation seemed to be extremely localized to Carnell's spine(since it was handing off his back page. In eseence Carnell had radiation burns on his back and spine, and the damage to the cells resulted in tumors growing. Also going by your basis of .015 msv per xray, this would mean that Carnell received 105 REM(Roentgen equivelent measure) of exposure, which is not fatal at all, it is close to the average exposure of a human being in a year(average is 100-300 REM a year, largely dependent on local enviroment as certain types of rocks do radiate Radon and other sources, Sailors tend to have around 100 REM, since the sun is the major source of radiation.Ironically Radiation workers tend to have the lease exposure of all professions, largely because they work in sheilded conditions and do not work outside. Farmers as a group tend to have the most radiation exposure of any profession).
    From a Radiation worker's viewpoint the point source involved is very weak for this effect, had he ingested the device somehow this level of damage could occur, but in reality this device is only a little more reactive than say Carnival glass(some glass in the 1920s used uranium as a color additive, its safe, though I wouldn't eat out of it, but mostly because they also used a lot of lead.
    No 70,000 x-rays are not a thousand years worth of radiation exposure, its actually about one years worth if you live in a low radiation area.
