Brothers and Sisters TV Show Chronicles Lymphoma Battle

“Brothers & Sisters Season 4, episode 13 is about A Bone to Pick, Kitty’s lymphoma reaches a critical stage, while the Walkers’ frantic search for a donor leads to an unlikely source,” or so says the show’s episode notes.
Of course, as the LA Times reports it, it sounds crass. As entertainment reporter Enid Portuquez explains, “Taking a cue from fellow ABC drama "Grey's Anatomy," "Brothers & Sisters" gave one of its lead characters cancer. Last night, Kitty got the news that she has non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a type of cancer that affects the lymph nodes. It was brought on quite suddenly, and we were thankfully spared from anything overly dramatic such as hallucinations of past lovers. Like "Grey's," it seems the C-card was pulled to not only give Kitty the renewed perspective and purpose to either save or scrap her current situation, but to give the show's fourth season a much-needed boost.” Ouch.
If you didn’t see it, you should. Find the clip here:

The clip is scene where she got the diagnosis and just sat there, dazed.
Granted, I’m a little behind in my tv shows, but I’m catching up and I wonder what you think. When shows portray a character getting cancer, does it feel like a manipulative move to get viewers, or is it an accurate portrayal of the ups and downs of life?

That is actually exciting

That is actually exciting show that could help us realize something.. Rob Lowe plays the character Robert McCallister on the TV series Brothers and Sisters. There have been rumors circling that Lowe has wanted off the show and in the Brothers and Sisters season finale 2010 he gets just that. His character has been presumably killed off. Sadly for all the Lowe fans, he will no longer be appearing on the show, except maybe in some flash backs. If you are a fan of his, just start watching, Parks and Recreation, and it is rumored you will see him there.
