Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mustard" data-source="post: 387639" data-attributes="member: 46">Pam was only diagnosed with neurofibromatosis because she was believed to be Digger's biological daughter at the time, as neurofibromatosis is genetically passed from parent to child. I can only assume that the writers painted themselves into a bit of a corner in the sense that they wanted to keep the possibility open for Pam to have a biological child in the future without the neurofibromatosis complication, which is why the whole Pam paternity thing was done. However, as they ended up with storylines where Pam never became a biological mother anyway, it was a complete waste.The whole thing of Hutch McKinney being Pam's biological father is the number 1 worst storyline in the 1978-1983 period of Dallas, without question.</blockquote>
