It’s been almost two full months since General Hospital star John J. York revealed that he would take a break from his role as Mac Scorpio due to a recent diagnosis.
Previously, General Hospital news and spoilers reports revealed York’s announcement. That’s when John J. York addressed his recent medical diagnoses, which lead him to reveal that he suffers from two blood and bone marrow disorders. Those disorders are myelodysplastic syndromes, or MDS, and multiple smoldering myeloma, two blood and bone marrow disorders.”
York’s announcement brought fans together in support for the search for a bone marrow match. In his announcement, the GH vet gave information on how we could become potential donors. Moreover, it wasn’t just his fans that displayed immense support for York. His friend Jon Lindstrom reached out to the world via social media, sharing donor information. Then, soon after, John announced that they had found a match! Fast forward two months and his friend and co-star John Lindstrom updated fans on his prognosis.
John York Health Update
General Hospital spoilers reveal that it’s a big week for GH’s Mac Scorpio, aka his portrayer, John J. York. The actor took to social media to ask fans to send “healing thoughts” as York faces a “big week.”
Felicia Jones (Kristina Wagner) has chosen Stella Henry (Vernee Watson) as her guide. Not long ago, Felicia made a decision to embark on a new life journey. She reflected on her life’s accomplishments, shortcomings, and even some regrets. That’s when she entertained the idea to shadow Stella over at General Hospital.
Recent General Hospital spoilers indicate that Felicia is read for a new kind of fulfillment, and she seeks it out in social work. Becoming a patient advocate is important her next step toward a different lifestyle. Since she can remember, Felicia has known herself to be an adventurer and a thrill seeker through her work as a WSB agent.
Before becoming a grandmother to Maxie’s three children Felicia lived a risky life. Consequently, many of her spy missions kept her from her family. Maxie and her children are Felicia and Mac Scorpio’s (John J. York) world. She’s happy help Maxie whenever she she’s in need. Of course, spending time with family is very important to Felicia. But now she has found another important outlet through her new job at the hospital.
According to the latest GH rumors, Felicia’s new direction is a nice change. And while her intentions are in the right place, this position as a patient advocate might not cut it for a someone like Felicia. That is, unless one of the patient’s that Felicia is assigned to leads her to another mission. Or something along those lines.
GH spoilers tease that although Felicia’s new job at GH as a patient advocate starts out slow and seemingly uneventful, (in the sense that she isn’t out saving Port Charles from disaster), something makes her feel right at home. Certainly, Stella and Felicia’s job at the hospital isn’t something to overlook. Helping patients connect with their doctor and to understand their condition is an essential part of medical care.
However, many GH spoilers and rumors tease that when something big arises, Felicia also rises to the occasion. Apparently Felicia is just the person this patient needs.
Felicia Jones (Kristina Wagner) is ready for a change. Clearly, leads a fulfilling life in Port Charles. Despite the good ole days of WSB adventures, romantic entanglements, and rescue missions, Felicia longs for something more. Or, maybe it’s not more that she hopes to find. Perhaps she seeks something different.
Aside from her impressive career wrap sheet, Felicia has been reflecting on her family life. While there will always be some other adventure to catch, Felicia and Mac’s grandkids only grow up once in a lifetime. The day to day has Felicia grateful for her impressive career, her children and grandchildren, and of course, Mac. Two major life events had a strong impact on Felicia’s at of life. Sadly, Felicia missed much of her daughter’s lives and wasn’t present for their most precious moments. And how she feels about what happened to Georgie never seems to ease up.
Moreover, Felicia and Mac Scorpio (John J. York) previously mentioned that they don’t have kids together. Although he considers Maxie, Georgie, and Robin as his own, the fact remains that Mac doesn’t know that he has a biological child and that it’s Cody Bell (Josh Kelly). Grandparenthood comes so naturally to them both… as of becoming grandparents was their destiny.
According to General Hospital spoilers, Felicia finds fulfillment in working as a Patient Advocate at General Hospital. As a result of her new career path, Felicia is able to connect with patients while advocating on their behalf. Needless to say, but it’s understandable that someone in that position is likely to develop deep friendships and bonds. Oddly, GH rumors hint that the former WSB Agent, Felicia Jones Scorpio, gets to know Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl) and her son Ace (Jay and Joey Clay) when he’s brought to the hospital with a medical issue.
Previously, GH rumors claimed that Ryan Chamberlain (Jon Linstrom) and Heather Webber are not actually Esme’s biological parents. Instead, many GH fans believe that Esme was mostly likely kidnapped by Ryan, Heather, or both at some point. Put that together with Soap Opera logic and math that isn’t mathing (most will understand the joke), and we just might have a story about Esme’s REAL biological parents.
Will Felicia’s new career path lead her and Mac down an unexpected road? It’s only natural that Felicia would connect with Esme and Ace if she’s assigned as his Patient Advocate. After all, the instinctive bond between a mother and her children/grandchildren is undeniable.
Are Felicia and Mac Esme’s biological parents?? As for Mac, will he learn that he has not one child, but two?!

Cody freaks out on Mac! …Gladys Corbin (Bonnie’s Burroughs) have proven to be a master manipulator. She’s got Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) and many others right where she wants them but in different ways.
On one hand, Gladys has the media and other outsiders fooled as they believe that Sasha Gilmore (Sofia Mattsson) has had another psychotic break. On the other hand, she also has Cody right where she wants him. However, she has Cody cornered. He doesn’t believe Gladys for one second that Sasha has naturally fallen into this dark place. Deep down, he knows Sasha’s mother-in-law from Hell has a hand or two in this.

…Over the years, Mac Scorpio (John J. York) and his brother Robert Scorpio (Tristan Rogers) have had each other’s backs. Through every adventure, every romance, every loss and triumph, the Scorpio brothers remain close. One solid way they’ve stayed close all this time is through their mutual friend group. Now that Robert has his sights on a new love interest, will Diane fit in with his bother Mac and their friends?
General Hospital recaps take us back to Diane Miller’s (Carolyn Hennesy) strong stance on dating. She made it abundantly clear that she won’t compete with any woman for a man’s attention; not even Robert’s. That being said, she won’t lower herself to such a competition with anyone, let alone Holly Sutton (Emma Samms).
According to recent General Hospital previews, Robert’s brother wants answers. Coming up on General Hospital, Mac asks Diane about Robert. Right now, Diane hasn’t a clue whether or she and Robert have a fighting chance at romance. As previously noted, Diane is certain that no man is worth getting petty with another woman over his affections. On the other hand, her fierce desire for victory might take over. It’s quite possible that the more Holly’s confidence shines through, the more inclined Diane becomes to win Robert over.
