"Stand By Me" was a fitting title for last night's Grey's Anatomy.

A face-transplant patient's friends refused to give up on him, despite his severe disfigurement. Cristina helped Izzie see that she has to fight and not just give up. Meredith told a depressed Derek that he needs to get back in the surgical game, if only to save Izzie.

It's all about never giving up and sticking close to the ones we love and care about, and it made for a great episode. Follow the link for a detailed recap of "Stand By Me" ...
