《生命交集》是CBS09年两部医疗剧之一,主要关注「器官捐献」这一特殊的医学领域。标题「Three Rivers」事实上是一种非常形象的说法,暗示了器官捐献者、接受者和医生之间复杂的三角关系--他们就像三条河流一样,既相互冲击,又相互融合。只有当三条河流首尾相连,才能形成一条顺畅的渠道,让河水奔流不息。可以说,「Three Rivers」这个名字和本剧的剧情一样寓意很深。
  每时每刻都有病人等待器官移植。找到合适的器官或许很难,但永远不乏爱心人士存在;实施移植手术或许很难,但永远不乏优秀的医生存在。然而,与捐献者的家人打交道,让他们理解捐献者的心情,帮助他们度过最艰难的时刻,这些后台工作远比在患者身上用锋利的手术刀划几刀困难得多。找到一个「物有所值」的受助者,更是难上加难。
  这些都是细致活儿,Andy Yablonski医生(Alex O'Loughlin)是这项工作的不二人选。作为器官移植领域的一流专家,Andy不仅技艺精湛,而且为人热情,忠于事业,性格和善。他经常会说些逗人开心的俏皮话,在病人和同事当中很受欢迎。
