NotesPatty Duke appears to have cornered the market in these 'disease' films. This gives her another chance to exercise a pained look on her face. She is looking for a bone marrow transplant for her adult daughter. These films only succeed if we are able to care about the characters yet they are churned out on a production line which doesn't allow this. There's better writing and treatment of such issues in 'soaps'.
