Oh my god, Nikki Chow, will she ever have her
marriage annulled, is having bad dreams/nightmares.
Ain't that how it always is with these freaks?
Although Sabrina Newman's unborn baby is dead, Nikki
saw the child as a viable little girl in her dream.
Oh the horror! What will become of Nikki now? Will
she return to the God Have Mercy Medical Center in
time to see Sabrina die, or will Sabrina already be
dead and her body still there in the ICU for Victor
Newman to point at and ask Nikki if she understands
and accepts that if not for her, Sabrina might be
alive?
Yes, it's all Nikki's fault. She damn well knew that
Sabrina would get into a limo with David Chow that
fateful night and that the limo would crash causing
some of the most severe injuries ever received from
a large vehicle being run off the road.
What of those injuries? Have you ever seen anything
so convoluted? Has any medical professional
witnessed a patient with multi-system organ failure
acting so chipper? A few hours ago Sabrina was
yucking it up with BFF again Victoria Hellstrom.
They were recalling old days in Paris when they'd
hit on hot guys which was strange because all this
time some of us thought Victoria was in Italy.
Today, Victoria recalled when Sabrina would make her
"special spaghetti" and as an afterthought wondered
if she should inform Sabrina's mother of the death
when dippy brother Nick said that most likely
Sabrina's family - in France - heard about it on the
news!
Yeah, baby. CNN International carried the story all
day. There was, we were told, paparazzi swarming
all over the Newman Ponderosa and outside the
hospital. So bad was it, J.T. Hellstrom had to call
out out a SWAT team.
Just when you may have been hoping to learn what
Sabrina's favorite CD was, brain dead Sharon Abbott
stole the thunder when - told of Sabrina's death
- she asked how on earth will she tell Noah Newman?
What's so hard about telling Noah? Shouldn't he be
used to death by now? Christ, not a year goes by
that someone connected to his family doesn't die, or
clings to life. Why does Noah need to know at all?
Did he know Sabrina?
It was funny that Sabrina was not on a ventilator
and her most serious injury, a lacerated liver, did
not require a tube stuck in her nose. That Sabrina
got the full treatment, the bells and whistles and
multiple IVs, would have been too gory. Like
soldiers killed in Iraq, their flag-draped coffins
must not be seen by the public lest war be shown for
the horror it is. Like when Ashley Abbott had breast
cancer, she wasn't shown having chemotherapy and
radiation and puking her guts from the horrible side
effects. A few weeks of wearing a bandana on her
head, Ashley made a full recovery. She didn't, like
many women who have breast cancer, require a
hysterectomy which often ends a woman's sex life.
And what's up with it being a good sign that a
patient on the verge of death asks for ice?
Specifically, "ice chips". Is it really a good thing
for patients flat on their backs to be putting bits
of ice in their mouths?
