Sometimes it is confusing why some characters are at a funeral, while other aren’t. With Caroline’s funeral, I hope Hope is there. She was her mother-in-law for years. It seemed she had a great connection to Julie and Maggie too. I wish Theresa and Kimberly could have come back too.

Patsy Pease had surgery and was unavailable. Yes, it’s a shame she can’t be there.

I hope Patsy is feeling better

Also her adopted son Max, played by B&Bs Darin Brooks. they were very close during his time on the show. He should have been allowed to come back for the memorial. I do hope Hope, Maggie and Victor are there even though they aren’t in the photo above.

I am sure this show will be very poignant and sad. I loved Caroline and the way she interacted with the other characters. I also loved Peggy McCay, the great actress that made Caroline come to life. I remember her movies from way back, she was so beautiful, and it was certainly to our advantage to have this bright star on Days. Her hair and the way she was so beautifully made up and dressed put a lot of the other women to shame, with their crazy clothes, blue hair, etc. R.I.P Ms.McCay, you will never be forgotten.

c

This is a nice thing that Days is doing.She is missed.God bless Peggy and her family,Days as well.

Soaps lack a good patriarch and matriarch with a moral compass…actually all of tv lacks a moral compass with so much gloom and doom,,,bathroom humor and lame sex jokes being the norm…tv has gone down the toilet-i keep flushing but all that crap comes back up!!!…i rarely watch anymore!!!

I agree with you 100% Jimh…people might laugh but I miss the days of The Walton’s and Little House on the Prairie.

I still watch those…

I’m glad Sami and Carrie could come back. It will be sad. Hopefully lots of memories and flashbacks.

This is why I continue to watch, respect, revere, this art form we know a soap opera. Like life, sometimes you can’t be there to pay respects – due to surgery, logistics, work, or because you already said your goodbyes. These shows when done property, honestly and with heart & love…bring us together. Like a comfortable hug makes me forget for o moment & feel and remember when…reflect on growing up & takes me back instantly. Not a daily viewer of the 4 currently shows, happen to be on sabbatical & will tune in absolutely. Arcs like this are the best, especially when actors come back, like family, and cross our paths in life again. Days…make us laugh, make us cry, make us care! No fan like a soap fan. Smiles.

^^^^ GOD

Christie Clark is not only beautiful, but a STANDOUT … whose grown up adult maturity would be so refreshing… that Horton/Brady beacon of having that one – heroine – to carry the torch.

can you imagine Carrie running in to Rafe with Danny !!!!! ????? how the love at first sight LIGHTS UP ALL OUR WORLD?

I have been agonizing for Lani… just LOVING < this story. Galen Gerring gets to act on his OWN. he is not being propped or needs to prop. this is HIS OWN STUFF. and he's magnet

this is savor

whet ALL our engine

OH GOD the material potential is all lying in wait. @Ron Carlivati get it NOW. HUGE windfall; payout; DREAM comes ALIVE

Christie Clark NEEDS TO BE

I got to watch about a half hour of the show ,as usual NBC had to interrupt my show.I cried when I saw this.I lost my mom last June she was 91 but I know the feeling of losing someone you really love.Peggy was class act.Nice job by Days.

an outstanding episode with the highlight being victor and hope allison sweeney rules and can visit anytime for a long time viewer the episode was gold

Days of our Lives Star, Greg Vaughan, Gives Health Update and Thanks Everyone for Their Support

Greg Vaughan (Eric, Days of our Lives, ex-Lucky, GH, and ex-Diego, Y&R) provided an update on his health on Sunday, March 17th. Vaughan had previously shared that he had become ill during a trip with his sons to Colorado, and had developed altitude sickness when he was having trouble breathing accompanied by terrible headaches and landed in the urgent care.

Now on St. Patrick’s Day, Greg took to his Instagram and shared how he is feeling now, and to thank everyone for their love and support.  As it turned out, Vaughan was diagnosed with high altitude pulmonary edema, commonly known as HAPE. However, he is on the mend slowly and surely.

In his new video post, the DAYS favorite started by expressing, “I just felt such an appreciation and gratitude for everything. . reaching out. Your prayers have been felt. It’s been a struggle, but I’m over the top. And, taking this moment just to say I didn’t realize the things that I was going through. My (original) post was simply just to educate, put some information out there and some things that I was feeling, just share that information and the struggle that I was going through, which I didn’t quite understand. And it wasn’t because I’m stubborn or just because I’m a father, a man, and didn’t want to go to a doctor. It is just something I thought was so minor that I could overcome it, just by taking care of myself.”

The Daytime Emmy winner then revealed his actual diagnosis, “So, basically my situation was high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE). With some good friends, doctors that had reached out to me, it kind of gave me some understanding on the aftermath, which was very, very beneficial.”

“But I’ve been resting, taking care of myself even though I live in a hamster wheel,” said the dad of three teenaged boys. “I gotta get up and, you know, do my normal domesticated stuff, eventually. I’m tired of laying down in this bed, but, I am feeling much better.”

Talking on his confusion of trying to understand what could have been ailing him, Vaughan expressed, “I couldn’t quite figure it out, even though I was emphasizing and professing to my children going on our spring break getaway about hydration. I professed it. But, even though I was acting on it, it had a greater effect on me, and for which I did not even think, because my head was such in pain, and I was in a very bad state of mind – not being able to be out there with my kids on the mountain, enjoying their time, as well. I thought I was doing the right thing. Unfortunately, my lungs were full of fluids and my head was in severe pain and even migraine pills didn’t even help. So, I just want anybody that goes into the Colorado Mountains to know, it is no joke. It is this very serious thing which I guess is why they call it the Mile High City.”

Greg had a mountain of ‘thank you’s’ to give for the outreach he received from his original post, “For everybody internationally, wherever you are, I love you and I appreciate you and just the time and the thoughts that you’ve shared with me,” said Vaughan. “I didn’t realize that it would make such an impression on so many people around the world. I feel tremendously loved and I can’t say it enough. I’m good. And I appreciate you.”

The actor concluded his video with, “To all the family and friends that have reached out to me, man, it means the world. So take care of yourself, enjoy your spring break with your families. It’s Saint Patty’s Day, obviously. I wish I could be out there.” Vaughan added, “I feel loved and touched and I can’t emphasize that enough. I’ll take better care of myself, promise you will do the same.” Before he signed off, Greg shared, “Just know, that I’m alive and well and breathing, and I’m sore. So, be well, take care. I mean it. Thank you, tremendously.”

Glad to know that Greg has been on the mend, and shared his appreciation for everyone that reached out to him during this trying time? Comment below.

Days of our Lives Star Greg Vaughan Shares Sudden Health Scare: “I Truly Feel Like I Work & Live in a Soap Opera!”

What started out as an adventure with his sons, quickly turned into a nightmare for Days of our Lives Daytime Emmy winner, Greg Vaughan (Eric Brady).

In a series of Instagram posts, Vaughan shared the sudden health crisis he found himself in.  The images show Greg with an oxygen tank to help him breathe.

The actor began to fill people, sharing, “I’ve said more than a few times, I truly feel like I work & live in a Soap Opera! 🤪 this trip was nothing short of another great Vaughan adventure!”

He went on to say that on a father and son Colorado spring break trip, he began to feel shortness of breath, feeling tired and with a headache and after two days of hoping he would feel better, Vaughan finally went to an Urgent Care to get checked out.

“I finally surrendered & went to urgent care and to my shock I learned that I was experiencing severe altitude sickness.” Vaughan admitted. “My Blood Oxygen was at 54% & my lungs were full of fluids! Blood oxygen, also known as oxygen saturation, represents the percentage of hemoglobin in your red blood cells that is carrying oxygen. Most people have an oxygen level of 95-100%….”

Providing more detail to his health scare, Greg shared, “Well, 4hrs later, a couple of bags of IV & oxygen tank strapped to my face, I was told that I needed to immediately get off the mountain! However I couldn’t, we still had another day to go & wanting the boys to enjoy their last day on the hill tops! I opted to go home with an oxygen tank, a good laugh for everyone, and I know will follow, but my boys looked after their old man & fortunately they had friends on this trip!”

The experience of altitude sickness in the Colorado Rockies gave Vaughan a bit of a new perspective, “In all seriousness, no matter your age, and all the times I’ve ⛷️ & 🏂 in my lifetime, Colorado Rockies is no joke! As they say, ‘ take a breathe and smell the roses!’ That is truly something we need to remember & appreciate! #recover”

Share your well-wishes to Greg as he continues to be on the mend via the comment section below.
