General Hospital (GH) spoilers tease that Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) will get some news that leaves him in a panic. When a call comes in on Sonny’s phone, he’ll answer it and head over to Turning Woods right away. It turns out Mike Corbin (Max Gail) will be in bad shape after a horrible seizure.
Once Sonny arrives, he’ll get updates on the situation from the staff. Sadly, things aren’t looking good for poor Mike. Sonny will be in denial about the end drawing near, but that’s exactly what’s happening. General Hospital spoilers say Mike’s seizure is an indication of just how far his Alzheimer’s has progressed.
Sonny will hold out hope that maybe he can have his father for a little longer, but that hope will fade rapidly. This is indeed the final stage of Mike’s Alzheimer’s, so it’s time for Sonny to make peace with the circumstances and find a way to say goodbye.
Sonny will sit by Mike’s bedside and share some private moments with his father. Unfortunately, Mike will pretty much be nonverbal at that point. GH spoilers say Mike will be unable to respond to Sonny’s speech, but he’ll try to remember times when Mike was more like himself.
Although Sonny and Mike’s relationship hasn’t always been a good one, they managed to reconnect in recent years. That’s something Sonny can cling to as this difficult farewell approaches.
General Hospital spoilers say there’ll soon be an incident that seals the deal on Mike dying. Mike will manage to get a few words out that let Sonny know his father’s time is almost up.
Perhaps Mike will say the names of loved ones who have already passed like Adela Corinthos (Iris Almario) or Courtney Matthews (Alicia Leigh Willis) – like he’s seeing and greeting them somewhere. That might make Sonny accept that Mike’s leaving this world behind.
Whatever the case, there’s a good chance Mike will die while Sonny sits with him. Although this should be brutal to watch, having a tender scene where Mike gently fades away seems like a fitting end to his story.
Of course, the story will continue for Sonny, who’ll have to deal with the loss and the hole that’s left in his heart. General Hospital spoilers say Mike’s death will affect Sonny’s battle with Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) in some surprising ways, so GH fans will want to stay tuned.
Most of us will miss Max Gail after his exit, but he’s done some incredible work in the role! CDL’s the place to be for great General Hospital spoilers, news and updates.
