Holby City1999
[Ric is feeling very aggrieved that he is eligible for a cancer drug but other patients are denied it due to NHS funding rules]
Ric Griffin:
Six thousand names on this list. Mine's just one of them. Do I *really* deserve it more than any of these people?
Donna Jackson:
No, you don't. But you also didn't deserve to get cancer in the first place, any more than my dad did or Ruby did. So what are you going to do? Just get a pin and pick a name at random? You're probably right: there probably *are* people on this list who deserve it more than you, and I'm sure there's plenty that don't. But I'll tell you one thing: I bet there's not one name out of these six thousand that's even half as infuriating as you are. By the way, you should check your email once in a while.
Ric Griffin:
Why?
[Ric looks at his email and sees that there is a message from his daughter Jess]
Ric Griffin:
What did you say to her?
Donna Jackson:
Nothing. She had her 32-week scan yesterday and I thought you might like to see it.
[Ric opens the message and watches the video attachment which is an ultrasound scan of Jess's baby]
Donna Jackson:
*That's* why you deserve it. *That's* your future. Even if you are too much of a stubborn old git to see it for yourself.
