The Cast's Goodbyes

Friday's show was so emotional; it seems Philip's illness was brought in so that he could talk about "HIS" last bar-b-que, but in reality, it's probably everyone's last one. It seemed to be their way of saying good bye to us, since almost the whole cast was there for the toast. Talking about 'we'll always be a family', and 'where ever we go we'll remember Springfield'. It finally hit for real that this may be the last few months of the greatest (and only) soap I've ever watched, for the past 35 years.

I posted something similar to this in another topic, titled Today's Show. I too was thinking along the same lines as I listened to Rick, Philip, Beth, and Mindy's toast at the end of the episode Friday. As much as I loved the episode Friday, I was in tears when Rick and Philip started the toast. For the first time since it was announced that GL would be cancelled, I realized that this would probably be the last Bauer B.B.Q that we would spend together in Springfield with our GL family and that come Sept., alot of us are going to lose not only the best soap ever, but, family that has been a part of our lives for many years. But, we all have our own special warm memories of our beloved Guiding Light that no one can ever take away.

I thought I was the only one that felt this way. It's good to know others do as well. It hit me too as I watched the Friday show that GL was really about over after over 49 yrs. of watching. It is very sad to me for alot of reasons. Not only are we losing a wonderful show, the show has different memories for me depending on what time in my life it was on. I just boohooed as I watched Phillip and Rick do their toasts. I too felt like they were saying goodbye to each other.

I HAVE to watch, but it hurts, soooooooooo bad. There is so much I'd like to say, but know most everybody is hurting like I am. Watching now, is like waiting for the death of a loved one, who I know will die, in the near future. I am afraid I am going to hit a bad depression, over this. It hurts to know, that soon, I'll never see those people again, those who have entertained me all these years, people who I love. Another thing, I was alread about the death of the show, and I wonder why they had to hurt me with the knowledge that Phillip, is dying, and there is no cure. It is double pain, for me. The actors are doing such a great job, and I wonder how they can go on, knowing the end is near. I am near to tears, right now

Is Lizzie pregnant in real life...She seems to be looking thicker thru the middle like Natalia did before they actually showed that she is pregnant.
I couldn't find another place to post this question.

Yes, she is really pregnant.

The BBQ was very touching on Friday and I bet none of us had a dry eye! The closer we get to fall the more we will appreciate scenes like those.

Didn't you love Buzz and Lillian sneaking out of the woods again this year??
