Sonya Amin

Sonya Amin was a patient in Derek's trial who dropped out.

History
Sonya had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's and was selected to participate in Derek's trial. Her son, Tarik, had moved back from London in order to help with her recovery. During her pre-op exam, she was unable to recall what she'd don the past Thanksgiving accurately. She said she'd visited Tarik and his boyfriend, Gavin, in London, but she'd actually been with the Simmons. She'd actually visited them three years prior.

When Sonya found out that her son had broken up with his boyfriend to move back to Seattle so she could get on the trial, she dropped out of the trial and told him to go back to London and be with Gavin.

Romantic
She was married to Tarik's father. He left her when Tarik told them he was gay.

Familial
Her son, Tarik, loves her very much. When she was accepted into Derek's trial, he moved to Seattle from London immediately, which involved breaking up with his long-term boyfriend. When she found out, she said it made her very proud to have raised such a good man, but told him to go back to London to be with Gavin.
