I am searching for an episode in which a car accident victim in a hospital emergency room is being kept alive by a medical technician who is performing chest compression's- keeping the patients heart pumping long enough for him to say goodbye to his wife. After he has finished saying goodbye to his wife he tells the medical technician-(who is sweating and is becoming physically exhausted from performing chest compression's on him)- that he can stop... and then his head falls to the side and he dies.
I have never cried so hard and been in shock like I was when I saw this scene. I thought I had seen it on the E.R. series... but my searches are to no avail. Please Help. Thank You Very Much!! - Ron Jones

I totally remember that episode - this was a very powerful scene. It is ER, but I don't know which episode. Sorry.

Hi there, if it helps, I think it's the episode Two Ships (Season 12, Episode 8)
