WHEN A PATIENT NEEDS A LIVER TRANSPLANT TO GIVE HOUSE AND THE TEAM MORE TIME TO SOLVE THE CASE, AN ETHICAL DILEMMA ARISES
THAT MAY ELIMINATE THE PATIENT�S CHANCE OF SURVIVAL
ON "HOUSE" TUESDAY, AUGUST 8, ON FOX
A young woman, Hannah, hasn�t been able to sleep for 10 days. She�s brought in after she downed an entire bottle of sleeping pills and still didn�t fall asleep. Meanwhile, Cameron accuses Foreman of stealing a medical journal article she wrote; he denies stealing it, insisting he wrote his own article about the same case and it was printed before hers was submitted. As Hannah�s condition deteriorates, it becomes apparent that she will need a liver transplant to give House enough time to try to solve her case. Her girlfriend and partner, Max, is a perfect match and agrees to donate part of her liver, despite its being a very dangerous procedure. However, the team discovers vital information about Hannah and Max�s relationship, forcing them into an ethical quandary that potentially eliminates Hannah�s chance of survival in the �Sleeping Dogs Lie� episode of HOUSE airing Tuesday, Aug. 8 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT).
