Angie Valens

**Angie Valens** was a young cancer patient whose brain tumor was discovered to have returned after her boyfriend Ryan was cured.

## Biography

### History

When she was sixteen, Angie developed a brain tumor and underwent chemotherapy for it. The cancer subsequently went into remission, but while at chemo, she met fellow cancer patient Ryan Cooper and the two fell in love with each other and made a pact that together they could beat their cancers. Angie was treated in part by Dr. Claire Browne who helped to put in her chemo port.

### Season 3

While Ryan is at San Jose St. Bonaventure Hospital to determine how much the chemo has shrunk his tumor, Angie visits, excited to go to prom with Ryan soon if the surgery permits. Claire recognizes Angie from helping to put in her chemo port and Angie jokes about how she lost a tumor and gained a boyfriend. Testing reveals that the chemo got rid of the tumor completely, but Angie collapses in a seizure as the doctors deliver the good news. Her cancer is discovered to have returned and is at Stage 3.

After Angie's cancer is discovered to have come back, the doctors attempt to figure out how to safely remove the tumor and warn that her recovery could take up to eight months. Angie becomes depressed, particularly as her mother keeps Ryan away out of fear that he will hurt her and then lies to her daughter about why Ryan is gone. As Angie's surgery approaches, Claire organizes a small prom at the hospital for the two teenagers that Angie's mother sees when she comes to drop off her favorite stuffed bear. After seeing how genuinely happy her daughter is, Ms. Valens chooses not to interrupt and simply asks that they not keep Angie up too late. However, Ryan is forced to wear a mask due to the risk of passing on an infection to Angie.

Angie is sent into surgery to remove the tumor with one of the dangers being that she could lose parts of her memory. Claire reassures Angie that if she forgets Ryan, she can simply fall in love with him all over again. However, the tumor proves to be impossible to remove even with the help of Dr. Aaron Glassman who returns to the OR for the first time in over a year to help oversee the surgery. Angie is returned to the ICU where Claire and Melendez tell her mother that radiation and chemo is not likely to work this time. Angie experiences a seizure as they talk and dies despite the doctors best efforts. In the aftermath, Ryan and Angie's mother, previously at odds over their love for her, find comfort in each other.

Maddie Glassman

"*Mom was out of town. [...] You caught me high for the umpteenth time. [...] The night I'd broke another promise, and you decided to quit the bargaining and the threats and take action. So you dragged me outside and locked the door. I prayed you would come and find me. Why didn't you come and find me?*"
—Maddie Glassman to Aaron Glassman during a hallucination[src]

**Madison "Maddie" Glassman** was the daughter of Aaron Glassman and a close friend to Jessica Preston.

## History

### Life and Death

Maddie was born to Aaron Glassman and Ilana Reeves. Growing up, Maddie befriended Jessica Preston and the two became best friends, both running track as either a school activity or a hobby. Due to her father's job as president of St. Bonaventure Hospital, he wasn't around much which resulted in a distant relationship between the two. Maddie was also angry a lot and regularly fought with Glassman when she felt that he wasn’t fair to her. She kept getting into fights at school because of a bully that was picking on her, while also becoming annoyed when she thought Glassman was victim blaming her by telling her to move as Maddie didn’t see why she herself had to.

Eventually, Maddie resorted to drugs where Glassman would find her and resort to threats and bargains to stop her. This didn't work which resulted in Glassman throwing her out of the house one night when Ilana was away. Glassman assumed that she would go to Jessica's or her aunt's but she didn't. She killed herself that night from an assumed overdose.

### Aftermath

Her parents broke up as what is presumed to be the result of the tragedy of losing a daughter. Ilana blamed Glassman for a long time for Maddie's death, and the resentment soured the relationship of her parents to the eventual outcome in divorce.

While Glassman was going through chemotherapy for a brain tumor, he began having hallucinations of Maddie presumably because of sleep deprivation. The two argued about the events that led up to her death. After a heated argument between the two, they made up and Maddie told Glassman that she loved him. He then drifted off to sleep and when he woke up, she was gone.

When Glassman was angry at Shaun for changing the surgery on Dr. Lim which left her disabled, he remembered his argument with Maddie concerning when she was being picked on and how he didn’t seem to side with her over it. This made Glassman remember that he never got to tell Maddie enough about how much he loved her and he reconciled with Shaun.

## Personality

According to Glassman, Maddie always ran everywhere she went. Her default was that she was angry, but also loved dearly. She loved her father, but their constant arguments meant that he didn’t show it enough and she couldn’t help but hate him.
