General Hospital Spoilers: It’s All Relative
If Willow knew that Britt was Nina’s cousin, she likely would choose another obstetrician; but even though Carly surely knows apparently Willow does not. However, Willow’s medical doctor and colleague Dr. TJ Ashford (Tajh Bellow) knows that Willow has a medical condition causing high white blood cell counts, and asked Britt to consult with him. This means Britt will be aware of Willow’s condition and she will run more tests to make sure the baby isn’t being affected; considering it a high risk pregnancy.
Britt obviously won’t be looking for a family connection between Willow and herself or Nina, but she may spot genetic markers she recognizes. Willow’s condition could be genetic, and pass through the Westbourne/Obrecht side of the family.
GH Spoilers: Britt Westbourne Had Genetic Testing That May Have Shown Markers On Both Sides
When Britt underwent genetic testing in Canada while on the run with Jason Morgan, (Steve Burton) she was specifically tested for Huntington’s Disease. However, the geneticist may have also checked for other conditions while he or she was at it, There are certain types of leukemia that can be hereditary, and genetic markers would show; and that is one thing that definitely could cause a high white blood cell count.
Since Willow does not know her family medical history, or even who her real family is for that matter, there could be cause for further testing. Knowing that she likely will need a bone marrow transplant, it would be wise to check GH files to see if a match could be identified in the existing donor pool. Britt, knowing she has those markers, but not wanting to donate herself will begin the search; Britt won’t want to donate because of her Huntington’s markers.
General Hospital Spoilers: It Turns Out The Condition Is Rare, Britt Westbourne Has A Hunch
TJ and Britt continue to work together on Willow’s case, and it turns out the condition is rare; Britt has a hunch she and Willow could be related. She isn’t aware of anyone giving another baby away, but she first tests her DNA against Willlow’s using a blood sample she takes for other reasons. Britt is surprised, but not shocked, that it is a match; but not a close match-she consults with her mother, Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) first,
Liesl is as surprised as Britt and she says they need to do a test against Nina, but not tell her it’s a maternity DNA test. Liesl only knew of the one baby, who turned out to be Nelle Benson, (Chloe Lanier) but wouldn’t be surprised at anything Madeline Reeves (Donna Mills) would have done.
GH Spoilers: Nina Reeves Is Tested, And Shocked-And Steps Up
Nina is asked to test for a bone marrow match and told Liesl is testing too, which she is, because of the common genetic markers found between Britt and Willow. Britt and Liesl tell Nina it’s a just in case situation because of the possibility Willow may need a donor; Willow doesn’t need to know who potential donors are.
She hasn’t been told her sure diagnosis yet and Nina knows she’s pregnant so of course she will step up if needed; Nina’s shocked at the results. It turns out Nina will be needed to save Willow and the baby’s life; Britt divulges DNA was done and it turns out Nelle had a twin! But Carly will be even more shocked, because she is keeping a secret and didn’t expect it to be exposed.
General Hospital Spoilers: Willow Tait, Michael Corinthos, Nina Reeves And Carly Corinthos Called To GH
TJ calls Willow, Michael Corinthos, (Chad Duell) Nina and Carly into a meeting with Britt after talking to Willow and Michael first; Carly comes for support. Britt has to bring TJ in on the loop of doing DNA tests because of the genetic markers found; a bit awkward, but the family needs to know. Willow needs a bone marrow transplant for a rare disorder, but luckily, relatives were found right there in town; at the second meeting, Britt spills the tea.
Carly is forced to admit to Michael and Willow that she knew Nina was Willow’s mother but swore to Harmony Miller (Inga Cadranel) who knew too, she’d never tell. As for Nina, she worries about the desperate diagnosis but steps up to save her daughter and grandbaby.
Be sure to catch up on everything happening with GH right now. Come back here often for General Hospital spoilers, news, and updates.
They need to do another DNA test on who is Willows Mother and this time don’t make it Nina She has treated Willow like crap from day one Willow deserves better even if that Parent is dead Willow would be better off than get stuck with Nina Nina deserves nobody
I definitely agree! I hated that they made it a twin story!
Hopefully the above is just coming from the writers of this blog. So Nina will be rewarded once again to get what she wants and Carly will be thrown under the bus?? GH is highlighting only 3 female characters at this time and they are Carly/Nina/Esme. It is time the Carly/Nina revenge, or whatever is intended by the constant bickering between the two needs to be put on the back burner and the lives of other characters highlighted. I don’t see how Esme can even be a thought to be Mac/Felicia’s child, the age difference is too off and would take so much change of history to make it true. Even if Esme is revealed to be Mac/Felicia’s daughter, she needs to be punished for her misdeeds before a so called happy ending or redemption. Heck, as Nina is on a roll, why not allow Esme to be a triplet? Poor Willow, I feel so sorry that she is being brought into this mess and hope writers will change their minds as to who her bio mom is. As Nina just has to have a birth child, let it be Esme.
Yes, Yes, finally the truth come out Carly needs to eat crow on this one !!!!Yes let Nina help her daughter and the baby life… Thank you long time waiting but yes let this happen just writer’s have stated here…,.
…..
But, Willow needs to know that Nina is her Mother,No more hiding the truth She must know that Nina is her Mother and the donor !!!!!!!! Writer’s don’t go down hiding it any longer, This needs to be taken care of now…..
No no no what does Nina keep winning This is a stupid storyline. Let Carly have a win. Nina has it all. I am no longer going to watch GH I am deleting this stream. Sunny is no mobster Go Ms Woo
I’d like to see Nina off to an exotic island for rest before she finds out about Willow. Carly telling the truth & suffer the consequences that she dished out to Nina. Sonny should be the only one that knows where Nina is & Carly, Willow & Michael speaking to Nina, apologizing let Nina have unconditional visitation with Willey, excepting & love towards Nina for the transplant & giving Nina the strength to step aside to them which will make them wonder why
No!!!! I could of wrote this so much better!! Now, once again Nutty Nina wins again! I guess if you lie about someone being dead instead of alive your a hero & get everything you want & not pay for your mistakes!! I despise these ignorant writers more every day!!
