I loved how they handled Mike trading Finn's engagement rings for a "much prettier one"....and his girlfriend agreeing
very classy way it was done...brovo!!

@cowboy sam I liked how they handled it, too...very well done! And it served Robert right, since he caused the mixup in the first place!

From my observances with people with Alzheimer's, their short-term memory is in tact for a while. It's the past memories that are the problem which is why Yvonne can't recall she is married but remembers each day that Mike is the person who is making her happy now. I don't think Mike has reached the stage where his short-term memory is completely shot. Apparently neither has she.
@BeckiWV I don't think it's a question of whether Marcus has a right to Yvonne or not. If he continues to fight what she wants, no one wins. We saw that before when Marcus was trying to push Mike out of her life. It's not like this condition is going to be reversed if someone keeps saying over and over "I'm your spouse. We love each other."
I'm not saying walking away from a long-term relationship is what should be done or what's easy but when you consider the person with the condition has already lost so much, is it fair to deny them a last chance at happiness. That's a question each person faced with this has to ask/answer for him/herself.
@Tique So eloquently said! 👏
@Coquille @Tique - agree with you both. Had BF 15 years older and he began having memory issues so I contacted his daughters. He was moved to live with a daughter about 3 hours away till he became too difficult to handle and he went to an assisted living facility near her.
I visited about 6 or 7 times a year and afterward I'd send his daughter an email of our visit. SHe appreciated that bc I would tell her what I saw that was different than last visit. I would start off with a sentence categorizing each visit as a "good" one or "bad" one. For the first 3 years he'd call all the time - his daughter had set the phone up so all he had to do was press a button on the phone. There were times he'd be "all over the place" and other times he had enough clarity it was almost like there was nothing wrong.

Our cable box was locked up yesterday so GH didn't record. We'll have to catch it On Demand today.

I hope the Nurses Ball picks up soon. It seems so slow, to me, this year. Need some action.

GH Recap for Monday, May 20th
In a room at the Metro Court, Jason and Spinelli talk over their plan to bug Dawn of Day. Down the hall, Scott interrogates Kevin and Ava about Lucy and her lacy negligee. He admits he was using her to try to sabotage Ava’s relationship with Kevin. Jerome assures Scott that she knows what she’s doing and leads Kevin off to the ball.
In the ballroom, the audience claps as the nurses sing and dance on the stage. Lucy comes out and welcomes everyone to the event, thanking everyone for coming. Mike and Yvonne arrive and show off her engagement ring to Sonny and Carly. When Carly joins Jax to talk about Joss, Cam stops by to ask how she’s doing. Across the room, Chase and Willow find Finn looking ponderous at the bar. The teacher leaves them alone and Chase prompts Finn to just pop the question to Anna.
The doctor spots Yvonne showing her ring to Bobbie. Finn rushes over to Sonny and tells him that Yvonne’s ring is his and he needs it back. Sonny takes his father aside and tells him he bought a fake ring. Finn offers a ring to go in its place.
Meanwhile, a miffed Anna tells Felicia that she wishes Robert would stop whatever he’s doing. She drags Robert backstage and lectures him for acting like they are on a date. He admits that he’s been a ‘bad boy’ and Anna makes it clear she has no intention of trying again with him. What they had is in the past and she loves Finn. As she walks away, he smirks.
Back in the ballroom, Neil sits down with Alexis. She points out that Shiloh is there. Sam is taking a selfie with him across the room. Jax joins Alexis and Neil and she awkwardly explains that he’s her therapist. She’s embarrassed when Jax admits she’s his ex-wife
.
A few tables over, Willow admits to Sasha and Michael that she was fired because of Nina. He offers to ask around and get her letters of reference for private schools. Over at her table, Nina tells Valentin that things seem to be working out for Sasha and Michael. She hopes that means Sasha will stick around.
Backstage at the ball, Cam finds a llama roaming around. He tries to calm Budgie the llama by telling him how unfair it is that he’s alive while Oscar is dead. He wonders what he will do with the life he has. Felix hurries in, explaining it’s Lucy’s llama and leads him away.
Meanwhile, Peter approaches Sam and Shiloh. He informs her that he is taking Molly up on her offer to do an expose. Escorting them to the table with Lulu and Maxie, Peter explains Molly will be writing about Dawn of Day. Peter asks Shiloh if he’ll help and Maxie starts lecturing Sam about her date. Shiloh leaves with Sam and tells her that was rough.
Chase goes on stage and sings Something Just Like This by The Chainsmokers and Coldplay. As he dances with a troop of dancers, he pulls Willow up on stage to join him. Afterward, she tells him how wonderful he is. He assures her she’s the only woman for him and kisses her.
Backstage, Finn corners Robert and tells him he’s still going to propose to Anna with the ring he planned to use. Robert hopes he can get the replacement back. The doctor assures him it went to a good cause. Back in the ballroom, Yvonne tells Mike how much she likes the new ring he gave her as a replacement. As Carly leads her out, Mike and Sonny recall performing at the Ball last year.
Lucy tracks down Cam and asks him if he’s still ready to perform, even though Joss isn’t there. He is. Lucy gets back on stage and makes a speech about Robin before calling Anna up to talk about her daughter and the meaning of hope. As Finn and Robert admire her, Robert pats Finn on the arm and the ring flies across the stage.
At the Corinthos compound, Kristina tries to keep Joss distracted. They watch a movie and try to figure out if it’s funny. They are too miserable to laugh so they commiserate. Then they look at coverage of the Ball. Kristina is concerned when she sees a photo of Sam with Shiloh. Soon, Cam shows up to see Joss and asks her if she wants to go to the Ball. She’d feel like a loser going and not singing.
Spinelli and Jason sneak into Dawn of Day and plant spying devices. Kristina calls in a panic about her sister. Jason assures her that things are fine.
Kristina storms into the Metro Court and corners Shiloh and Sam, demanding that he get away from her sister.
@Lipstickdiva this is a pretty good recap. It should hold you until you watch.

Wasn't Livy supposed to be Kevin Collins' daughter, you never hear anything about that

I like the slides of the hospital at the end of the new opening but IMO the music is awful

Didn't know they started the Nurses Ball yesterday - so hysterical most of it. And seems to now be a 'thing' for someone to propose to someone. Today it's Anna and Finn. She said YES!!!!
Good to see finally Kristina has made the turn. Now she's after big sis Sam, little does lil one know that big one is in the middle of a coup to nail that Shiloh scammer.
Speaking of the ball - does it seem like all the singing acts are lip synching? None of them especially the opening number sounds or looks right.
