There has been a big hole in her heart since her child was stolen.

Carly meets with Denise, who assures her that no one will find out who Willow’s biological mother really is.
Carly explains that her friend would be letting herself in for a world of pain if she knew the truth. Denise doesn’t care about the reasons.
She confirmed Harmony’s story. The payment only covers the mother’s imaginary death.
If she wants her to claim the father is dead, that will cost her more.
Carly claims she’s not made of money and tells her she’s awful.

I could be paying someone to lie about someone’s parents being dead,” Denise points out, suggesting she look in the mirror sometime.

Willow laughs at that. She tells him he has no idea how important this was to her.
Drew flashes back to all of her off-key behavior and exhaustion.
“Oh my god! You are sick, aren’t you?” he realizes.
She admits she has leukemia and she’s in stage four.
Unless she can find a bone marrow donation…
He gives her a hug and she explains she delayed chemo to protect the baby.
She’s getting chemo now but it’s not enough.
Her best chance is a bone marrow transplant from a family member but she doesn’t have any.
Willow makes him promise to keep this quiet, even from Carly.
She can’t risk Wiley finding out.
He promises not to tell a soul but also promises to continue searching for her family.
When they head back in, Carly is waiting for them and acts surprised that her mom is dead.
