On Y&R, does anybody (I mean the writers) remember Victor had a heart transplant a year or so ago?

I mean, I know heart transplant recipients can lead 'normal' lives, but are on medication all the time, suffer from medical side effects and probably would not be parachuting into another country, in their late 60's or 70's on a wild goose chase.

I would think it would be mentioned now and then, not just when Jack or somebody mentions that Victor has Colleen's heart.

Update:

No, I don't think it is real, the actor playing Victor didn't jump out of a plane, but he also has never had a heart transplant. But that is the story we're supposed to believe about the characters.

    It was mentioned a few times before all this started with Adam. Now they kinda put that on the back burning. Don't forget he did a 20 years heart. So his heart is younger than him. And he went out of the country for specific care for his heart. I guess what they are implying is that the treatment he received in the other country cured him of all heart problems.

    As far as Greenlee is concerned they may have gone through her stomach to reach her back. They sometimes do that. Since there is so many muscles in the back that it is easier to go through the stomach. I had neck surgery,two disc replaced and they went through the front of the neck.

  • Ha! All soap writers forget. A heart transplant is a momentary plot device, meant to be forgotten years later.

    Vickie on OLTL had a heart transplant some years ago, but whenever her chest is visible, there is no scar.

    Greenlee on AMC just had major back surgery, but you don't see a scar when she wears revealing dresses.

    Red, soap operas don't often follow the rules of real life. ;) They showed Greenlee on the table and the doctor was working on her back.

    Well, I think Victor must be Chuck Norris's billionaire brother.

    I guess they either think we are dumb, or that he is a super hero.

    We are supposed to forget a lot of things ever happened.

    How about the fact that the bar in Canada is so obviously Jimmy's?

    yeah, he sure is spry for a 60 something guy, there is nothing the mustache cannot do! They do this on all soap operas, I remember a few years ago on General Hospital when whats her name, the magazine chick, was shot in the heart and in less than a month after surgery she wore a low v neck gown with no speck of a scar.

    Besides jumping out of planes he drinks alcohol on a fairly regular basis. Maxi (GH) had a heart transplant also with no scar. Lulu mentioned Dante's chest scar today but I didn't see it.
