Izzie: It's Ted.
Verna: Ted?
Izzie: Ted. Not just the neighbor you barely knew, was he?
Verna: I don't know what you're talking about.
Izzie: 'Cause every year on the day he died, you get a rush of adrenaline cause by stress. Your pressure rises. You have chest pains. And you end up here.
Verna: 27 years. I loved the man next door, and he loved me. I know how this is gonna sound but Ted was my soul mate. And then he just died!
Izzie: It's grief. Your heart stops because you're grieving for Ted.
Verna: So... what do I do next? ... I mean how do you treat it?
Izzie: I wish I knew.
