Sam is gone on General Hospital. She flatlined out of nowhere, just as she was happily telling her mom news of her engagement. But is Kelly Monaco really, truly done? Because death isn’t always the end in Port Charles, whether it be ghostly visions, dreams or hallucinations.

And that, it seems, may be true this time around, as well. Because while we aren’t sure in what capacity we’ll see her again, Soap Opera Digest has confirmed that Kelly Monaco will make a last appearance later in the week. And while we got one heck of a heartfelt goodbye with practically everyone in Sam’s life last week before she went under, it will be nice if the show gives her a deeper chance to say farewell to her loved ones properly, now that she’s passed.

Fans, we’re sure, will be happy with the chance to say goodbye properly after Monaco’s been in the role for 21 years. And it seems odd to say after waiting for months to find out how Sam would die, but her death today was so sudden and out of the blue, it didn’t give anyone the chance to say goodbye.

Maybe, while we’re at it, we’ll find out what actually happened that brought it on after she seemed so fine. There have been rumors aplenty about how she’d die and who would cause it, but right now, it just looks like a sad complication of surgery.

So while we’ve got to say goodbye to Sam, at least the time hasn’t come for Kelly Monaco just yet.
