Publish date: 2024-05-09

The upcoming events for the 60th anniversary of "General Hospital" include the return of the Nurse's Ball, a tribute to Sonya Eddy, and the return of fan-favorite characters like Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) and Milo Giambetti. 

Actor Drew Cheetwood recently posted a picture of him outside the "GH" studio on Instagram, writing, "Almost 20 years ago, I taped my first episode of General Hospital. I was almost 20, and now I'm almost 40." He added, "After filming yesterday, it really hit me how grateful I am for all the opportunity this show has afforded me. I worked with my real-life brother playing brothers on the show for 10+ years." Cheetwood also praised everyone's skills both in front and behind the camera. Regarding the tribute show, he said, "Yesterday's episode was a tough one to film. We lost an amazing human being in December unexpectedly. Sonya Eddy lit this world up with an incredible light. She was so many beautiful things to so many people. We'll miss her greatly."

Cheetwood was honored to have been asked to participate, remarking that it was his way of giving back to the show. He further explained that because life is short, everyone needs to make an effort to stay in touch with loved ones. "Make amends where you can. Pray. Often. I'm saying so much of this to myself too... just so you know," he added, encouraging everyone to spread love and laughter as Eddy did.
