Additional Comments: Every time I see Bridgette being the "doctor" it makes me chuckle. It is so ridiculous that just a few years ago she was a kid....and now she is dealing with organ transplants! It is so unbelievable. I haven't watched today's show yet, but I would not be surprised if they have her actually performing the transplant!
We need some new characters in this boring show! I just want to gag each day with the same old Brooke/Ridge/Nick storyline. Let's move on already!

I was hoping Bridget wouldn't be in the operating room. I'm surprized she was allowed in there. It's a good thing she had supervision, because that dummy would probably have put the old heart in by mistake.

You must have been reading my mind........her license should have been yanked a long time ago......I can't handle Bridget since the casting change.....this actress is horrible and the writers have made the character a cartoon.

This entire storyline has been one absurdity after another.

I used to like Bridget, but not anymore. When you have a doctor practically hoping and praying that someone will die, that's a problem. I've never heard of anyone having that attitude when a loved one needed a transplant. I always thought if it happens, be grateful, if not, so be it. Donor organs are never a given. Bridget is just sick.

Hoping and praying for someone to die? Hardly. She was hoping that by some miracle there was a heart out there that would match Katie. It's what the family of every heart recipient feels. That doesn't mean they're hoping for someone to die. ~i&b

Is there no end to Bridgette's doctoring? Now she works on the tranplant team? First of all transplant teams are specially trained and secondly and MOST important DRS. DO NOT, and I repeat, DO NOT participate in ANY surgery involving family members.

And while I'm on a rant and roll here family members DO NOT observe any surgery like the Logans and their entourage did today.

Would they truly, in real life, allow an emotional, close family member to assist in a surgery? Let alone a heart transplant? Besides, I thought her specialty was screwing up in the fertility dept.

well no in real life of course she would not be allowed anywhere near this case. and as for her specialty - all soaps have one doctor who handles whatever emergency is going on ... just like the one lawyer who sometimes is the DA and then suddenly is a defense lawyer! hee ...

No, a doctor would not perform this type of surgery on a close family member. My step-father is an orthopedic surgeon and wouldn't even perform a 'total knee' surgery on my mom's sister. This is standard, ethical practice so that, if anything goes wrong during surgery, a family member (doctor) would not have the blame/guilt on their shoulders. Bridgette assisting in performing life or death surgery on a close family member was totally stupid. The SL would have made much more sense if they'd just had her be with her family while the heart doctors worked on Katie.
