That's sad.
She was 18 kinds of good looking...and reminded me a bit of the wife.

House got drunk and called Wilson to give him a ride, as the bartender took his keys.
Amber answered his call as she was home and Wilson was at work.
House told her to call Wilson, she chose instead to go to the bar and pick him up.
As they were leaving, House got a wild hair and got on the bus instead.
At the last minute, Amber joined him on the bus with his cane that he'd left behind.
She sneezed, then took some pills. House recognized that she was taking an adamantine regimen.
The bus then crashed, flipping on it's slide and running into a parked car. Amber got a pole through her leg and numerous contusions, including damage to her liver.
House wandered off the bus dazed and still drunk and went into a strip club. He came out of his funk realizing he saw something [aside from the crash] that was endangering someone's life, but couldn't remember what.
Amber was without her ID [lost in the crash] and was sent to another hospital as a Jane Doe.
House tried a number of risky measures to regain his memory, despite his serious concussion from the crash.
He eventually pieced it all together [and they had tracked down Amber, cooled her core temp and put her on bypass to buy time], to realize that she had been poisoned by confluence of the adamantine ingestion and the liver damage that stopped her from filtering it. By that point, the adamantine was deposited in her protein cells and could not be filtered by dialysis. At that point, the only options were to let her situation play out [eventually and inexorably fatal] on bypass or wake her up and give her a few minutes to say goodbye. Woke her up and she died in Wilson's arms.
