a a mother who have lose a child and i think dool portrayal of hope and bo grief and anger be very realistic . i have be a fan of day since the late 70 . some story line and actor be good than others but on the whole be be engage and often deal with current issue . frequently though and the story line drag and be plot be repeat . there could be less of the cutesy early 20 somethings and and more middle age character . i do not think there one ugly man on the show and the woman be all gorgeous . bring back steve and kayla be really fascinate to me and a great idea . steve johnson and his love kayla be like the beauty and the beast while it be one of the best love story on daytime tv . may hope be carry bo baby . although i do not know how old she be suppose to be . may sami get what come to her . lucas . may jack live forever .
