As Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) has a caesarian section, General Hospital preview video spoilers for the week of Monday, January 30 through Friday, February 3 hint excitement, terror, and sadness.
Joy is felt as Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) offers encouragement, fear is felt as Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) frets, and dejection is felt as Laura Wright’s Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) sobs outside the operation room. Two Lives Hang In The Balance is the title of the promo video for GH, letting us know that the situation is dire.
General Hospital Spoilers: Joy
When Willow’s genetic markers prevented Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) from receiving a bone marrow transplant, they believed that all other alternatives had been exhausted.
But when Dr. Terry Randolph (Cassandra James) suggested a possibility for a stem cell transplant from the baby’s cord blood and placenta, she provided new hope.
Sonny informs Nina of this discovery and it is clear that he heard about it through Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell), who momentarily confided in his father.
Sonny explains to Nina the operation, which involves Willow having a c-section to deliver the baby early, and says that there could be a chance to spare Willow’s life. Nina is obviously excited and happy, but what if anything goes wrong just before the event?
GH Spoilers: Fear
Josslyn’s anxieties about Willow and the procedure to see Dex Heller are another source of worry (Evan Hofer).
Since there are always hazards when using anaesthesia, she expresses to Dex her concern about what may occur if Willow doesn’t awaken after the procedure.
Joss is on the verge of tears as she considers all the possible outcomes, even if a success may potentially save Willow’s life.
In the absence of a bone marrow match appearing out of nowhere, Willow’s stem cell transplant seems to be her last choice given that she has end-stage leukaemia.
Having undergone a kidney transplant, Josslyn herself would not be eligible to give, while others in their network have been evaluated.
General Hospital Spoilers: Despair
Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) comes up to Carly outside a GH operating room and asks if Willow had a setback. Carly seems to be in despair.
Carly is sobbing and terrified, which is unusual for her.
After Elizabeth Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst) prepares Willow for surgery, it appears that optimism is turning to dread behind the operating room doors. Could there be a negative anaesthetic reaction?
“WILLOW,” a female voice screams as a woman who looks to be asleep in the OR is not awakening.
Both Willow and the baby risk dying if she stops breathing for even a brief period of time since the baby wouldn’t get any oxygen.
