Storylines
Edit
On March 19, 2009, after renewing their vows, Carly and Jax conceive a child during their honeymoon. Upon discovering her pregnancy could cause her a stroke due to her past miscarriages, Carly avoids telling Jax. In April 2009, after being pushed down a flight of stairs by Claudia Zacchara, Carly confesses her woes to Jax, who ultimately urges her not to abort. After having a dream sequence about her unborn child, Carly decides to name her child Josslyn John[1]. On October 13, 2009, Carly went in to pre-mature labour in Jake's parking lot but Johnny Zacchara and Coleman Ratcliffe bring Carly to the hospital, where her doctor, Kelly, states that if Carly gives birth naturally, then she and her unborn child would die. The labour was stopped and a date for a C-section was set.
Added by Lovealways5671After being kidnapped and held hostage by Claudia Zacchara in a cabin, Carly went into premature labor and gave birth to her child[2]. Claudia, who had to help Carly give birth when Josslyn got stuck in a breech position, became obsessed with Josslyn and decided to kidnap her. Carly realized what Claudia intended to do, and yelled for Claudia to give her daughter back, but she was too weak to stop her. Just as Claudia was about to leave Carly for dead and take her newborn daughter, Josslyn's older brother, Michael, enters and kills Claudia. Seconds later, Sam McCall and Carly's friend, Jason Morgan arrive and take Carly and Josslyn to the hospital, where the two of them are reunited with Jax and he gets to meet his new daughter. Claudia's corpse was soon buried and the cabin was burned. Ironically, Josslyn and her attempted kidnapper, share the same birthdate[3].
Carly and Jax's marriage was troubled when Carly discovers Jax's participation in Michael's shooting, ultimately leading Carly to throw Jax out. Carly and Jax reconcile on Thanksgiving Day, 2009. While shopping for a christmas tree on December 21, 2009[4] with her mother, Josslyn's hat gets stolen by a madman named Franco, whose obsession with her godfather Jason Morgan, leads Franco to take Carly hostage on January 4, 2010[5].
Added by Sparrowhawk8Josslyn was christened on January 29, 2010 [6] with Jason Morgan and Lulu Spencer named godparents[7]. Following the christening, Carly separates from Jax and moves in with Jason after discovering that Jax had planned to frame Carly's ex-husband Sonny for Claudia's murder. Jax later moves out so Carly will stay away from the mob violence, but ends up taking Josslyn with him when Carly will not steer clear of Sonny. On March 21, 2011 Carly, Jax and Michael were stunned when Josslyn was diagnosed with stage 5 kidney cancer in both of her kidneys. Their only options where chemotherapy or organ donation and both Carly and Jax were opposed to chemotherapy. They did not want to expose young Josslyn to such poisonous chemicals at such a young age and were determined to find her a donor. A devastated Carly asks Jason, who's son Jake had just died due to a hit and run, if he would consider donating Jake's kidneys to Josslyn to save her life. Jason agreed to talk with Lucky and Elizabeth, and when he approached Elizabeth at first she angrily refused. But after Jason talked with Lucky, Lucky talked with Elizabeth and convinvced her that this could make Jake's life meaningful. Eventually she came around and both Lucky and Elizabeth agreed to sign the papers for the organ donation. Josslyn was given Jake's kidneys and the transplant saved her life.
