As a seasoned viewer of Coronation Street, with a heart that beats for the tales of its beloved residents, I must admit that Monday’s episode left me in a state of profound sadness and empathy for Lauren Bolton. The heart-wrenching decision she made about her son Frankie was a testament to the depth of human resilience and the complexities of love.
❗️Note: The following discussion reveals plot points from the Coronation Street episode that aired on December 16, 2024, which is now streaming on ITVX. Proceed with caution if you wish to avoid spoilers!
In the recent episode of Coronation Street, Lauren Bolton, played by Cait Fitton, faced a devastating choice concerning her unwell infant son, Frankie.
Last week, I had to be readmitted to the hospital as my grandparents, Gus (played by Chris Garner) and Anthea Deering (portrayed by Carol Royle), discovered signs of injury – bruises – on my body.
Although the couple alleged that Lauren was abusive, it wasn’t long before doctors discovered that the condition wasn’t due to external wounds, but rather an indication that Frankie might be gravely unwell.
Lauren shared with her partner Max Turner that Frankie’s test results had come in, suggesting he might be suffering from leukemia or severe aplastic anemia.
If it turns out that the situation is as we fear, Frankie may require a bone marrow transplant, and a biopsy has been scheduled. However, before any of that can happen, he needs to receive a blood transfusion first.
It was stated by Lauren that she intended to donate organs for her child, however, an examination of her medical history found that she had contracted Hepatitis C at thirteen years old, which meant she couldn’t donate because of the presence of those specific antibodies in her system.
Simultaneously, Gus and Anthea arrived at the hospital’s entrance, explaining cautiously to Max that they intended to reconcile with Lauren and extend assistance to her.
Max dismissed them, yet they persisted towards Frankie’s chamber regardless, and Lauren informed her law enforcement escort that she was ready to listen to the Deerings.
Gus and Anthea expressed regret for their recent actions and argued that taking care of Frankie was for the best. However, when Lauren rejected this idea, tensions rose as Gus disclosed they’d already sought custody.
Lauren evicted the duo, yet she felt heartbroken over her inability to assist Frankie personally. This situation made her ponder whether Gus and Anthea were correct in their assessment.
In my perspective as a film critic, I found myself moved by Lauren’s predicament in this gripping movie. Facing the looming threat of a lifetime imprisonment for the alleged murder of Joel (Calum Lill), she made a heart-wrenching choice that Max tried in vain to persuade her otherwise.
It seems she might think Frankie would fare well with Gus and Anthea in the end. However, will Lauren support this decision?
