Lea Seibert came into the ER after being in a car accident that her husband caused.
History[]
Lea, her husband, Bob, and her son, Scott, were in a car accident. A car had cut her Bob off and he, in a rage, caused an accident. The driver of the other car involved died and Bob was left in critical condition. Lea and Scott had only minor injuries and had to be monitored, but Bob was seriously injured and had to be taken into surgery. Even before the accident, he was in liver failure and his condition was worsened by the car accident. While the doctors were operating, they asked about a potential donor. Scott had been tested as a match, but hadn't agreed to be a donor. Lea pressured her son to donate, as they were informed that Bob wouldn't survive the surgery without a transplant. After speaking with Alex about his own experience, Scottie agreed to donate, but only on the condition that he and his mom moved out of the house and she told the police everything her husband had been doing to her.
