The Young And The Restless Spoilers – Adam Newman Was MIA When Chelsea Lawson Collapsed
Viewers of The Young and The Restless will recall that Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) was missing in action when Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) collapsed in their living room. She had dozed off on the couch and awoken with horrific pain in her head. She was set to have surgery to repair the aneurysm in her brain the next morning. Adam had gone out, supposedly to pick up food but made a side trip to attempt to crash the wedding of Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) and Rey Rosales (Jordi Vilasuso).
Meanwhile, Chelsea, alone, tried to stand up but the pain got worse and worse. She managed to make a call to 911 and then collapsed on the floor. Adam, not having even picked up the food – or perhaps leaving it in his car – arrived home in his penthouse to find Chelsea on the floor. The paramedics arrived right after he did. He briefed them on the brain aneurysm and that Chelsea had been scheduled for surgery the next day.
He follows the paramedics to the hospital, but because he is not married to Chelsea, he is not allowed visits in the ICU and is only given limited information about her health status. Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy) comes out and does tell him that the aneurysm burst and she needs emergency surgery, which she does survive. Elena tells Adam he should go home and get some rest because he’s not doing Chelsea any good panicking in the waiting room.
Y&R Spoilers – Adam Newman Gets Bad News And Chelsea Lawson Faces A New Normal After Her Stroke
AMP in the post
Adam calls the hospital to talk to Elena in the morning, after a night of fitful sleep. She tells him to come in person. Adam is shocked to find out Chelsea had a stroke, and she is unable to speak and her right side is paralyzed! Adam is afraid – he doesn’t know what to do or how to care for Chelsea. He is desperate to see her but is not allowed due to HIPAA regulations and the two not being married.
He even calls Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) for help pulling some strings, he is so desperate! Victor undoubtedly will be just as shocked and try to help in any way he is able to. But Adam will face a new role – that of caretaker, once Chelsea is home. As anyone who has ever known a stroke patient would know, Chelsea has a long road ahead of her. She will need speech and physical therapy for very many months.
Chelsea’s new normal will be difficult for her to deal with, as well as being difficult for Adam, her friends and family and especially hard on her and Adam’s son Connor Newman (Judah Mackey)! Chelsea will also need help with common everyday tasks such as bathing, fixing her hair and makeup, dressing and undressing, and will likely be in a wheelchair. Depending on whether she is right or left-handed, she may not even be able to write notes to communicate! Adam grew up with a blind mother, but at least she could do everything else. This will be difficult for everyone, to say the least, but most of all for Chelsea!

Adam should take care of Chelsa she loves him, and they need to be together. He can do this if he focus on this and Conner.
this is all heartbreaking to see , I honestly hope the writers are smart enough to write Adam as a loving and compassionate partner for Chelsea and brings her home with as many health professionals as she needs to help her get well, he is certainly rich enough. Will Victoria and Nick and even Nikki be more compassionate or will they do as they have always done and blame it all on Adam , i for one will be very angry if they write it that way …Adam is truly trying his best to be a better person ..I do believe he loves Sharon but he truly loves Chelsea and I do hope they marry so he has some say in her health care
He needs to hire a full time nurse or aide to help with the every day stuff and have that person move in then have PT andOT bond to their penthouse.
Adam is to blame for Chelsea's situation and I hope she kicks him to the curb. Nick will step up because that's his nature.
My friends husband suffered from a stroke, he was young like Chelsea. So I very much hope the writers can bring attention to Stoke victims and do the telling of this story justice. My friends husband had to relearn to speak etc but was eventually able to return to work. I think this story could give Melissa a very challenging story and I'm looking forward to watching her do a story she can finally get her teeth into.
Adam is not a bad person and I believe he truly do love Chelsea. Hopefully he will being Chelsea home and take good care of her.
Well he could be there but why should he. At present he is with someone else. Sure Adam will take her home and make sure all her needs are taken care of. If Adam will allow, Victor will also be there for Adam with Chelsea.
Nick was with Chelsea when Adam was presumed dead….he doesn't turn his feelings off. Adam's absence will come to light, thanks to Phyllis
What kind of stupid Doctors do they have thee to let a person with an aneurysm go weeks before operating ?????
I hope Adam steps up to look after Chelsea. He should. She's always been at his side so he should be there for her. There is enough money for him to hire a nurse to do the most of the work at home.
I am so over Adam being written as the worst of worst. Enough is enough, give the poor guy a break. Let's make him a better person, I think he has suffered enough. Put Billy, Phyllis, Victoria and Nick in the hot seat for a change. Let see what Nick does when he finds out that Billy Boy Abbott slept with his daughter and that her mother sent them out sailing when she found out about the little fling. Time for Victoria and Nick to show their true colors to Mama Nicki. They think they are the best of the best. I never want anything to happen to Faith but this is a good time to introduce Teens and Drinking.
