Heartbreak For GH's Ingo Rademacher And His Wife
Courtesy/ABC
In a heartbreaking post via Instagram, General Hospital and Ingo Rademacher (Jax) fans learned that the popular star and his wife lost an opportunity to bring child number three into their family, following an emergency over the last several hours in Oahu, Hawaii. Ingo’s wife Ehiku suffered a miscarriage.
Ingo shared his emotions on the tense moments: “Ehiku is OK. We were very excited for the possibility of baby no.3 but ectopic pregnancy with internal bleeding-Ambulance straight to surgery ended all that today. Scariest 2 hrs of my life waiting for her to come out of surgery. I’ve never felt so helpless. Big thanks to the Kahuku Ambulance crew and castle Medical who were really amazing. It’s 2 am right now and I’m so thankful to be sitting/sleeping on this uncomfortable chair watching as my wife recovers. We are lucky, blessed and very fortunate to get through this.”
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Ingo and Ehiku during this difficult time.
Please send your well-wishes to the beautiful couple in the comment section below.

General Hospital and ‘H.R. Pufnstuf’s’ Billie Hayes Dead at 96
She was one-of-a-kind, and now actress Billie Hayes has passed away at the age of 96. Hayes’ family announced her death from natural causes on April 29th at Cedar-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles.
Hayes was best-known for her unforgettable role as Witchiepoo on the 1969-70 Saturday morning live-action children’s classic H.R. Pufnstuf from Sid and Marty Kroft.
However, daytime fans will remember that then General Hospital executive producer, Gloria Monty, hired Hayes to play the recurring role of the street-smart international spy, Brighton O’Reilly, back in the 80’s series hey day.
GH’s Tristan Rogers (Robert Scorpio) took to Twitter to mourn the loss of Hayes on Monday sharing; “My dear wonderful Billie Hayes has died. Sadly I only got to work with her on GH but it was a magical relationship. Right away Gloria Monty saw something unique and ran with it. I cannot tell you how her passing saddens me.”

In story, Brighton O’Reilly was shot and killed by Victor Cassadine back in 1981. Billie told Soap Opera Digest back in 2003 about her time as an agent on GH, and her exit from the series: “I asked Gloria why she killed me off, and Gloria said, ‘To tell you the truth, Billie, we really hemmed and hawed at it. But I decided to do it for selfish reasons. I knew if I killed O’Reilly there’d be such an abundance of sympathy and love for Scorpio that his stock would go up. And he’s my new leading man!’ I understand why Gloria knocked me off, but I would have loved to have gone on with it because I feel it could have been developed into a fascinating character.”

Sid and Marty Kroft also took to Twitter and expressed: “Margaret Hamilton (Wizard of Oz) once told us that Billie Hayes was “one of the best witches ever” We couldn’t agree more. Rest in Peace dear friend.”
Billie’s career spanned decades including Broadway, television, motion pictures and voice-over work. In addition, she founded the Los Angeles-based animal rescue nonprofit organization Pet Hope, a cause she had championed since adopting a puppy abandoned in the basement of Broadway’s St. James Theatre during the run of Lil’ Abner in which she was featured in the role of Mammy Yokum.

Prayer for a Woman Who Has Had a Miscarriage
O God of love, source of life,
hear our prayers for _____.
Her baby died before it ever came to birth.
The blessing of your love
was torn from her body,
leaving her empty and devastated.
Comfort her now in her sorrow.
Restore her hope for a child to come.
Give her courage and new delight
in the days ahead.
In good time, grant her a new life
that her soul may rejoice
and her body give birth;
in Christ’s name we pray. Amen.
–Vienna Cobb Anderson
