Lila

Lila is a woman who was in the laundromat when Eleanor Davis drove into it with her car.

History
Lila was in the laundromat when Eleanor Davis ran her car into it. She was upset because she said this couldn't be the way she died as she was supposed to go to Brazil next week. She had Huntington's disease. Her mother had died of it, so she got tested and found out she had it as well. She said she could accept that she was going to die, but she couldn't die doing laundry.

Her scans showed a diaphragmatic rupture, which allowed her stomach to go into the chest cavity. They planned to put her stomach back and repair the defect. When Lila signed the consent form for her surgery, Meredith noticed that she had chorea in her hand. She said it had started a few months ago, but she hadn't told her doctors.

Her surgery went well and Meredith gave her medicine for the chorea. She said she'd need to see her doctor for a refill once she returned from her trip.

Familial
Her mother died of Huntington's when she was 45.
