General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal that there could be a reason why Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) was the one to suggest Curtis Ashford’s (Donnell Turner) experimental procedure. GH writers put Portia in the driver’s seat on this, so let’s talk about the trouble this could lead to.
After all, Curtis did tons of research back when he was first paralyzed and recovering in his hospital bed.
It would’ve been easy for Curtis to pick that research back up and present the idea to Portia himself.
Instead, the writers had Portia give Curtis some hope and submit all his info for the experimental study.
Portia is bringing her medical expertise to the table and no doubt making Curtis believe all this is really possible.
However, there’s always a risk when it comes to this kind of procedure, especially when it’s unproven and still needs to be explored more.
There are plenty of ways this could go wrong, so Portia may feel guilty if disaster strikes.
It’s possible the procedure won’t work or that the results won’t be what Curtis was hoping for.
It could be a situation where Curtis’ ability to walk again is delayed – leaving him thinking that the procedure was a total failure.
That’s the kind of thing that could plunge Curtis into a deep depression.
It could even lead to Curtis seeking less legitimate experimental options and becoming determined to try something even riskier.
Then again, the procedure Portia suggested could prove dangerous.
What if it requires a surgery that takes a catastrophic turn and puts Curtis’ life on the line?
Portia would feel terrible for even suggesting this experimental study in that case.
There could be a scenario where Curtis is struggling to survive while Portia’s an emotional wreck and blaming herself.
Of course, we have no doubt that Curtis will regain the use of his legs sooner or later.
Curtis’ paralysis storyline will conclude eventually, but there may be a lot more drama between now and then!
