Rose is Bernard's wife.  She met Bernard after her car stalled in the snow once, and soon fell in love, with Bernard proposing to her 5 months after they met.  He learned at that time that Rose was suffering from a terminal illness, and took her to see Isaac, a famous faith-healer in Australia, for which he pays a $10,000 donation.  Initially reluctant, Rose agreed, to appease her husband.  Isaac told Rose that he couldn't heal her, because she needed to find another magnetic source of energy that would.  She lied to Bernard and told him that Isaac healed her.

During their return trip on Flight 815, Bernard went to the bathroom in the rear of the plane. It was during that time that the plane broke up and crashed onto the island.

Jack has to revive Rose with CPR the day of the crash; she survives and lives with the middle section survivors. She wears Bernard's ring on a necklace, because his hands swell when he flies, and has faith that he survived in the tail section of the plane.

The first night, she recognizes the sound the sound the Monster makes, but may not be able to place it.

Rose is a person of faith, and is able to comfort Charlie as he works through his own redemptive process.  She also helps convince Hurley not to blow up the food storage room.

She is reunited with Bernard after the middle section group meets the tail section group.  Bernard tries to build an S.O.S. sign, but Rose is opposed to the idea, because she believes the island has healed her illness.  She finally reveals this to Bernard, and he then decides that he does not want to leave either, if this is the case.
