About[]

Tyler is the son of Mr. Milligan, who came to Sacred Heart Hospital with a ruptured spleen, caused by Tyler power-kicking him when they were play-wrestling. While J.D. and Dr. Cox struggled to diagnose his father, Tyler was looked after by Elliot Reid, despited her fear of children's small hands. After this phobia gets to her she gives him money to go off and get chocolate milk, but he doesn't return. Eventually, Tyler is found in Dr. Kelso's office talking about exercise and his dad, and Dr. Kelso takes an instant liking to him, and decides to pull strings so that Mr. Milligan can remain in the hospital even though he has no insurance. When his father is taken into surgery, Tyler wants to watch, but Turk doesn't want him to - however, after asking nicely, Turk gives in and lets Tyler stay who is very happy. The surgery is successful and Tyler arrives back from the surgery with his dad and the good news, with a smile on his face and a cheerful stride. J.D. keeps his promise meaning that Mr. Milligan, and Tyler, can return home before Christmas. ("My Best Moment")
