Other surgeons would have to remove any other tumors that it has made in other parts of the body, and many lymph nodes, as well, if it is indeed melanoma.
Melanoma can be a nasty type of cancer, once it spreads.

Pam, that is a very interesting theory. I'm starting to think it is that, as well. The thing about melanoma is that when it's found just on the skin and it hasn't metastasized yet, it's very treatable. But once it has metastasized it is next to impossible to battle. If it's in the lymphatic system, it could produce tumors in other places in the body. Maybe this is what she has. Maybe it has produced a melanoma tumor in her brain and Der will have to remove it.

Since fish has no malformations in their brains they will not satisfy Derek completely.Izzie will do.

My guess about Izzy is that she has melanoma. It makes sense. She had something removed from her back. Melanoma often spreads to the brain, which would explain her behavior.

if patrick leaves i will not continue to watch the show and im pretty sure im of the majority so they wouldn't let him leave which means it probably only for awhile like everyones saying

just because he quits being a doctor it doesn't mean he'll leave the show. he can still be in the show without being in the hospital. it has been shot many scenes in mer's house so why can't he be there or in the trailor or whatever

hey can someone explain to me,what does this line means...."even as meredith refuses to give up on him" ....i think that is why this episode's called "i'll follow you into the dark"...lyke th way derek tried to follow mer when she had mom issues...

I think Meredith proposing would be really cute...but I have a feeling that if Izzy finds out she is going to die, Alex and Izzy will get married (didn't Shonda say at some point that there will be a beautiful wedding this season but it's not who we'd expect?). I don't know why, but I have always thought a pregnancy would come before marriage for Mer and Der...
I really just want the proposal to hurry up though! Him holding onto that ring is driving me mad!

Doubt it very much that Derek would quit SGH. Meredith will come out with something to convince him to stay and also the chief. He'll probably come out with one of those "Your the best neurosurgoen a hospital can ever get." something like that. Mmm. I am guessing that Derek would propose to her at the end of the season, would be romantic. Hmmmm. And i think that Derek and Mark would forgive each other as well. Hope all turns out good.

Derek won't be gone for long, that much is obvious. And Meredith will be there for him, which i know and am happy about. Meredith has grown considerably.
And i'm unsure that Meredith would propose. Even though she built a house of candles, i think she is still very scared and insecure about their relationship, even if it has been a couple months into it. And though she seems to becoming less scared and more comfortable with it, i don't think she is at the point where she would propose. Although it would be awesome to see, that's for sure.
And if she actually does, then in these last episodes of the season, she will be growing a lot.
Even though Patrick Dempsey would never quit, if he did, i would and i'm sure may other would stop watching the show. I mean, come on...Grey's anatomy isn't Grey's anatomy without Meredith and Derek. They make the show what it is.

Remember the days back when Shonda claimed she hated spoilers? Seems like they can't tell us early enough in advance anymore what's going to be on the show. It's like if they say it enough times- Denny WAS a great plot twist, Izzie's story DOES make sense, George WILL get screen time- they can make us believe it. Even the writer's blog seems to do that; convince us it's a great plot line rather than letting us decide ourselves by making a good show. Got to warn the viewers in advance or they won't stay with the show. It's a pity. It's been getting better in all aspects- this is the best season since season 2- except for the fact it's become so predictable.

hehe maybe they'll just say "marry me!" at the same time.
and him quitting will last for what 55 minutes? i don't think he will actually stay away from the OR for long if he ever even gets to the release papers

First thing, I LOOOOVE that picture. He looks good :D
I honestly think that Derek might quit but the Chief isn't going to take his resignation. He'll give him time off, maybe a sabbatical for him to get his act together and I bet that his coming back is to rescue Izzie from whatever brain tumor/aneurism/schizophrenia that she has.
I think it'll be good to see a different side of McDreamy. Maybe Mer should take some time off with him and take some trip somewhere. That'd be nice.
I don't think that Owen and Cristina are the wedding at the end of the season. If someone is more screwed up than Derek is, it's Owen. He has clearly PTSD and he needs to get his act together, for his sake...and Cristina's.

ok derek quitting? i don't think that's gonna be a forever thing either. and i do think mer will be the one to get him back on track, help him through, get him to see the sunshine again. and then he'll propose and she'll say yes, and they'll live happy and forever in their little dream house of candles. at least, that's what i want to happen. but i'm guessing that there'll be no proposal from either this season. but you know? i'm beginning to think that as long as they don't split this season and make it like a full 2 seasons together, then the viewers will be at least a little happy.
i'm loving the owen/cristina wedding idea, but i think that would be a little too fast for shonda and the writing staff. we may love it, but it's only been half a season soooo i doubt that. the izzie/alex thing is far more likely. i hope she isn't dying, and then again, if she's leaving, then they might not. who knows.
and you know, i'm thinking that derek may just consider quitting and then not be

Yeah, I think Derek will just quit for a short time. Who knows what he'll do, but I'm sure it will lead to a storyline of Meredith talking to Cristina about him, and maybe him moping around.

personally I think that Derek will quit but then the revealtion of what is wrong with Izzie, which will no doubt be Neuro, will bring him back so that he can try to save his colleauge and Mer's friend. If this surgery was a success it would then pave the way for him taking his job back...

as far as proposals go, I'm thinking a little owen/christina action??? did anyone even watch the last show and hear what he said? he "wants" to be around in 40 years to pull the knife out of her hand... he wants her. i'm thinking they might give her character some new lovin after what they had to do with Burke's character. but then again, that's just me...
