In one episode, a man is reunited with and marries his high school sweetheart, only to have a heart attack on his wedding night. He is rushed to the hospital and immediately given the care he needs to live a long life with his new wife. In another, a daughter decides to donate one of her kidneys to save her father’s life. In yet another, a 12-year-old girl undergoes surgery to correct the bowing in her legs from familial rickets.
