T.V. Medicine

Okay I've had it! If anyone knows Shonda Rhimes (sp) get her on the phone and kick her hard in the butt. I hate it when they destroy a story line for the sake of t.v. but this whole infertility line on "Private Practice" was total crap. So far from reality. Obviously they didn't bother to use a consultant and if they did, get their money back.

so... what happened?

I guess it was the whole infertility scene with a couple when they found out he was spermless i.e. '0" they were going to sperm donor, then they were going to use his bother then they finally used a procedure called T.E.S.A. all in less than 48 hours. Real worls it doesn't happen like that. Most men with even crappy sperm counts they aren't "0". You can't hit up a sperm bank get everything you need that ASAP. If it's a known donor there is a wait limit by law not mention all the tests. And for T.E.S.A. in Ca. there are only 3 people with their oats to do it.
This couple had about 5 other stages of testing before getting to all that and it was misssed. That  was so sad and misleading.

Yeah, I've never heard of a male not having any sperm, esp. considering there's like, what... 500 million of those suckers that can fit on the tip of a needle or something like that?  But dude was bone dry, huh?  Yeah, that's just bad research.
