Arizona had everything she had ever wanted, she was a world renowned pediatric surgeon, a wonderful mother to her daughter Sofia and a happily married wife to Callie Torres. She had it all, she was so happy..key word being was. Everything changed when she got in an awful plane crash, two friends dead and the rest injured...Arizona was never the same again. She learned to live with one leg, work and be a mother too but being a wife was its own struggle to Arizona. Callie seemed to want Arizona to be the happy, full of joy girl she used to be...but Arizona didn't see how that would ever be possible when her life had changed so much, and her relationship with Callie started to crumble under her because of this. After a few months Callie and Arizona separated, and Callie took Sofia to New York with her when she moved for a new job. Arizona tried to fight in court for her daughter, but lost miserably to Callie. Callie however wasn't heartless, and made a deal with Arizona. Sofia would live with Callie during the school year and with Arizona during the summer and on breaks. Arizona wanted more time with her daughter, but couldn't really do anything about it so she agreed to what Callie offered.
Years have passed and Arizona still lives in Seattle, working at Grey-Sloan memorial hospital with her friends. She lives in the same apartment, which she now shares with Alex Karev, and she still works the same job, pediatric surgeon. Life in Seattle has been pretty crazy recently, lots going on. Bailey and Ben are married, raising their son and also getting ready for the arrival of their daughter who is due to arrive next week. Meredith and Derek live in their dream home, raising their five kids. Zola, Bailey, Elis, Emma and Alex. Amelia and Addison got married two months ago, and are just the cutest dream couple ever still living in their honeymoon life. Avery and April are married, but separated due to some drama Arizona couldn't keep up with. Christina is living her dream life, head of cardio and living with Meredith. Owen died in a horrible car accident while trying to save others, Richard had a heart attack and died and Jo has been in a coma for the last few months after she went into surgery for a minor operation. And Alex...well Alex hasn't been doing anything much recently. After Jo's surgery, he stopped working, moved in with Arizona and starting spending most of his days sleeping and drinking and his nights crying and waking Arizona up.
Life in Seattle has been a lot to handle, with so many deaths, births and drama Arizona has found everything hard to deal with and has decided she needs to get away from it all. She is leaving for New York next week to be with Sofia.
