Caroline will be starting to show the early signs of Alzheimer's.

Peggy McCay didn't panic cause they told her they're not killing off Caroline. The plan is to take this slowly, acknowledging that there is hope and encouraging progress being made in the treatment of alzheimer's. This would being a different story and different outcome if it had been done five or ten years ago says McCay

pic of Bo & Caroline and the caption says: "On October 30th, Caroline and son Bo, leave Salem for a dementia treatment center in California"

I can't stand Caroline these days tbh so this doesn't phase me. This is how Bo is leaving?

Glad I don't watch anymore, I can't watch this, my grandmother had dementia before she passed away and I know these writers won't do it justice

Knowing DAYS, we'll find out Caroline's pre-Alzheimer's is, in fact, part of Stefano's latest scheme to destroy the Bradys and rule Salem.

I feel you on this -- broke my heart to watch my grandmother struggle with that.

Eric I would assume they would leave the door open if Peter Reckell decided to comeback or if they decided to recast the role of Bo.

So Bo leaves with Caroline, then ships her back to Salem on her own while he gallivants around the world or something? Or will he be "killed" off screen while he's traveling with her? Either way, I don't like it. I don't like this Alzheimer's story either -- and I've never had a problem with social-issue stories before. This one just feels too cruel. Yes, even crueler than an onscreen death.

I had a feeling awhile ago that this was how they'd usher Bo off. It gives him an easy way to return, but what happens when Caroline comes home without Bo? Hmm. Guess they'll cross that bridge when they get to it.

This is exactly why I've never had a problem with soaps NOT telling this kind of story. It's too morbid, especially since Peggy McCay herself isn't in the best of shape anymore (she's what, like 84?)

I don't have an issue with this and actually think its an original way to write him out

I know I shouldn't say this.... they don't have to explain where Bo went, when Caroline comes back to Salem and someone asks where Bo is she can honestly say she doesn't know. oh how I miss "Santa Barbara" they would so write it that way. lol

I could honestly see them doing that.

he is clearly leaving with her, there will be no hope, she will return without him as he goes on a quest to bring down the dimeras and dies at sea so hope can go get a ride on Daniel or Rafe.

Great story, Gary Tomlin and Co. doing a great job with it. I love it.

LMAO! That's right up there with Alistair Crane turning Simone Russell gay in an effort to punish her family.
