I’m thinking it’s the oncologist who gives her the clean bill of health. Need to add a little more drama in here.
but I think it could be a good storyline if she did have cancer. To show someone from a stable loving relationship (at least by Days standards) face the challenges. Do you think that could be the reason for John and Marlena’s return? To help her deal with the testing, even if she does get a clean bill of health.
If they didn’t come back for the death of her child or her marriage, I don’t think they’d come back for testing.
I also think it would be a good idea to give her cancer but after the way they treated Kate’s, it’s probably a good thing they did’t. If they did it realistically, it might have been a very valuable public service.
devastating disease, (yes, Maggie had her illness and Phillp had his face replaced and lost a leg – but the show never showed the aftermath and hard work it takes to recover), but I’d like the writers to treat a disease with reality, that Sami does have to go into chemo, loose her hair, wear a wig, throw up, and Rafe be there through it all with her – and him having a breakdown at the overwhelming situation but pulling through for her. And then have Sami come back in a years time, in remission or cured, and more mature than ever. It could be a great and inspirational story line if the writers did it right!
Gawd, could they make Lexie look anymore doom and gloom? I would have been just as satisfied if she’d (Lexie) come out of the surgery and told Rafe everything went very well and it was just going to be a waiting game to see how the test results came out. Instead Sami has to pass out and "we’re gonna lose her!" has to come into the storyline and of course, the "morbib face" ends the day’s episode. Just once it would be nice if they were just a little bit more realistic. Rafe could still put on the worried act, but come on, just a tiny bit of realism would be nice.
Well we had all that in the Chloe story, chemo (the kids all wore turbines), bone marrow, Brady being by her side. No need to do it again.
Kate, and Jennifer when she had her heart ripped out of her chest had an amazing three day (it seemed) recovery…I’m just saying if they want reality in the show with a gay story line or bad guys and good guys then so be it, show reality. And since Sami is the fair haired child of the show, if the writers did this story correctly, instead of having a face transplant with no scaring or leg amputation with no limp or pain, let’s do it the way it is and not gloss over what it actually is – the toughest thing in ones life, if they just want to gloss over it, then don’t even do the story or idea of it.
years if not tragedy and woe: Kidnapping, adultery, murder, false imprisonment, rape, baby switching, lying, cheating, burying people alive, running people over with cars, drug abuse, constant arguing between spouses just to name a small sample. If we actually consider what we watch on the show, we cannot exactly say "Now THAT is entertainment".
