We also have Monday’s GH recap where Willow loses her bone marrow donor, Sonny discovers something in Britt’s papers, and Martin tells Esme to find an alibi.

He’s sensed resistance the entire time he has been searching. She admits she doesn’t want her birth parents found.

Drew reminds her of the relationship she got with Bobbie after she went looking. Carly says that not all reunions go well and she wanted to spare Willow pain.

Drew says that was not her call to make. She makes excuses and insists Willow already has a family.

He snaps and says that Willow’s biological family can give her things that none of them can.

She admits she obstructed his efforts considerably, including bribing Denise to give him a false story. She also hid the information on the commune leader.

He gets frustrated and explains that Willow has leukaemia.

Carly is shocked but it all makes sense. Drew explains she needs a bone marrow transplant. That’s why he stepped up the search.

“You don’t need to search. Nina is Willow’s birth mother,” she admits.

In Nina’s penthouse, Sonny shows her the paperwork that says Willow is getting chemo. She thinks they probably shouldn’t be looking at this.

Sonny says Willow is family so he’s going to do all he can to find out what’s happening. Nina wants to do all she can to help.

They go through her medical report and wonder why she delayed treatment for so long. She guesses it was because Willow is pregnant.

Nina has no idea how she is getting through this and what it must be like to choose between your own health and that of your baby.

She realizes this is why she bumped into Terry with Michael and Willow. They must be keeping it quiet so Wiley won’t be upset.

Nina wonders how much Michael has influenced these choices. Sonny says the family in-fighting needs to stop so they can pull together for Willow.

Wiley and Michael bring Willow dessert at home. She can’t think of anything better than family time. The kid looks forward to having a sister.

Wiley starts suggesting names and then Michael takes him upstairs for his bedtime story.

Willow sits alone and cries. When Michael returns, she vents about barely being able to be a mother. He assures her Wiley will be okay.

She blames herself for everything so he holds her. Willow thinks he should be angry with her for gambling with their lives and losing.

He knows she’s frustrated and so is he. They still have time to find a donor.

She points out there’s a lot less time and that’s because of her. At the moment she should have shared with him, she shut him out. Why doesn’t he hate her?

He could never hate her. He can understand why she did what she did and he’s good with that. He’ll never regret a day he’s spent with her or the place she has in Wiley’s life.
