After School Doctor Episode 9

Naoaki’s surgery

This episode focused on Nao. He is finally strong enough for the surgery and it’s all about the patience of healing. Kei struggled to enjoy her last bit of school and was gently reminded she had to take care of herself too. The family seems to be healing nicely and Kei and her mom seemed much closer. Everybody is counting the days hoping to see Nao in school. Dr Makino has been practicing catch but I am curious as to why he uses right arm to throw when he writes left handed. Ruka has made it through her surgery and tells Nao bye while he is still waiting to get discharged. It’s a wonderful moment when he lets go of his mother’s hand and goes to join his new friends at school. This was another stellar performance from all the child actors. Dr. Makino gets a surprise in the infirmary.
