The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers for Thursday, December 21, reveal that Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) will continue to fret over the situation since Eric Forrester (John McCook) is stuck on a ventilator and looks trapped.
Steffy is second-guessing her decision to support the experimental treatment since Eric didn’t want to be kept alive by machines.
Now that Steffy has urged unconscious Eric to let go if he needs to, she’ll lean on John “Finn” Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) for more support. Of course, Finn will likely assure Steffy that none of this is her fault.
There’s no reason for Steffy to feel guilty for wanting to give Eric one last chance to survive. At this point, it’s still a waiting game since Eric’s doctors have to keep checking his test results to see if the procedure worked.
It’s not something that’s an instant fix, but it’s hard for Eric’s loved ones to be patient right now. As Finn watches Steffy wrestle with all this, he’ll inevitably deal with some guilt of his own.
Finn may fear that he gave Steffy, Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye), Donna Logan (Jennifer Gareis) and the others false hope through his research and experimental treatment.
However, Finn was very clear about there being no guarantees, so Steffy will remain grateful despite the lack of progress in Eric’s recovery so far.
Later, B&B spoilers say Finn and Bridget Forrester (Ashley Jones) will give Ridge another option, so this will put him back in familiar territory.
Ridge has Eric’s medical power of attorney, so he’ll once again find himself in a position to choose his father’s fate.
Since the test results aren’t showing any changes, Bridget and Finn may tell Ridge that he can either keep waiting for Eric’s improvement or go ahead and take him off life support.
Ridge will feel like he’s in an impossible situation, so he’ll definitely have to give this some serious through before he makes a decision that he can’t take back.
Perhaps Ridge will decide to pull the plug before the week’s over – paving the way for Eric to surprise his family by breathing on his own and opening his eyes.
Regardless, The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Ridge will worry about what to do in the meantime, so stick with us for updates on the difficult news ahead.
