Yeah.  I mean, she married three different dudes and had five children, before she switched teams and married her current wife.

I remember David from St. Elsewhere.  He was only there for season 1 before being written out.  He was also in the movie 'Oh God - Book II'.  If I recall, he was also briefly on the drama series 'Family' with Meredith
