Lucy Russell

Lucy Russell is the one of the quintuplets born at Seattle Grace Hospital.

Birth
Lucy was part of a quintuplet pregnancy. She had been diagnosed in utero with hydrocephalus, meaning she'd need to have surgery to place a shunt shortly after birth. When their mother was 32 weeks pregnant, she was hospitalized until she was ready to deliver, which she hoped would not be until 36 weeks. However, she started having contractions at just 32 weeks. They put her in trendellenberg and put her on magnesium to try to stop the labor. Despite their efforts, her placenta started tearing, forcing them to deliver all five babies at 32 weeks.

Infancy
After birth, Lucy had surgery to insert a shunt to drain the fluid off her brain. She was doing well in the NICU after her surgery. ("Owner of a Lonely Heart")

Familial
She is part of a set of quintuplets. Their parents also have a set of triplets.
