NOTES A young woman undergoes a series of tests but doctors

cannot find what is wrong with her. She appears to have

some kind of anaemia and a rare blood disease.

A doctor doing research invites her to his hospital in Hawaii

but he has his own motives. The backer of his hospital has a

son needing a heart transplant and he has a rare blood group

which the woman's matches. Even when the woman is in

remission this doctor is still after her heart. However on the

plane to Hawaii she has met someone who happens to be a

doctor and he comes to her rescue.



Only mildly entertaining and the medical condition is simply a

plot device.
