All these 28 years later, this story still moves me to tears-maybe even more so now-and it reminds me of what an injustice it was that Brad Maule did not win the Emmy that year. I think this story was written during Claire Labine’s tenure as Head Writer-she wrote some beautiful stories that transcended the genre (the Stone/Robin AIDS story and Monica’s breast cancer story), but this story represents GH at its artistic peak.

[@kimplacek5315]

Claire Labine and Wendy Riche were a fabulous duo as head writer and executive producer at GH. Fabulous stories, editing, music, casting. The 90s were exceptional on GH!!!!

[@joanneogley4874]

After this story line, I was not able to tune in everyday like I had since the 60’s when GH began. It was just the most heartbreaking story I ever seen on TV to think a child would die… I began watching again with my sister a couple years ago. That was a long time in between, and now Maxie is all grown up and no mention of this.

[@writeone6665]

I seldom cry...but damn this ...

[@bethknapp2736]

My hubby is a heart transplant recipient and watching this and knowing what the donor family went thru as they lost there loved one. It kind of puts it into perspective. We can never thank our donor John enough for the gift of his heart. And the donor mom we have met is so special to us. We can never thank the family enough

The acting in the lead up during and the aftermath were just devastating the scene where Maxie finds out she has BJ's heart in kevin's office were epic i loved how the storylines were all interwoven thought out and complexe and utilised the entire cast, you couldn't miss a day in case something huge happened,.

Rewatching this, I have to again feel that what Carly did to Tony by telling him her baby was his and then him essentially “losing” him so close to BJ, was even more cruel than Carly will ever acknowledge. No wonder he had a complete breakdown. This SL was the most heartbreaking I’ve ever seen.

[@brynne77]

Agreed. I hated her for that, too. Though it's just a soap story, this and her nasty character and how she treated him and as you said, that she never really acknowledged how she hurt him for the reason of this story of how they lost BJ made me feel sick.

Watching the scenes between the 2 brothers and the depth of their love for each other is what made this transplant story so moving and touching along with the close relationship between all characters in the story. Years later JW would have to go through this as his brother needed a bone marrow transplant. That's why this story was far more moving and touching than when they killed off Jake to give Josselyn a liver transplant

When GH writing was at its best. Sure wish they hadn't killed Tony off. Brad Maul still has that gorgeous hunk of hair and he is one of those men that almost looks better in old age. GH could use a good doctor like Tony. Why he did not get the Emmy for this story - just befuddles the mind.

Everything worked well in this storyline for the most part except for the excessive long camera shots on Mac's face - and, even on Frisco's as well, especially when he first arrived. In earlier years - they didn't do this so much, it was more natural. I get what they were trying to emphasize about Mac/Felicia/Frisco but the audience wasn't blind, they could see where this was going a mile away. That moment Tony tells Frisco and Frisco processes it is gut wrenching. You can feel the shock, sadness, all of it between the two. Tony seems yet to be mostly in shock even while he is functioning. I think this is the first time we see Frisco ever cry - I know he does later but I can't recall ever before this. Happened so realistically too - sigh.
