In 2020, actor Suzanne Rogers and her character Maggie Horton were noticeably absent from "Days of Our Lives." Although fans missed the character, in reality, Rogers was struggling after a scary incident sent her to the hospital and forced her to fight for her recovery, per Soaps. Rogers revealed that one day she had placed curlers in her hair and then moved on from her beauty routine to take a pill. The pill shockingly got caught in Roger's throat, which alarmed the actor and caused her to call 911. Rogers remembered the EMTs working to save her, and then two weeks later she woke up in the hospital. The curlers were out of her hair, but her hair and scalp were severely damaged (via Soap Opera Digest).
Rogers was told that she would need to go to rehab to recover from the incident, and then was dealt another blow when the autoimmune disease that she was diagnosed with in the 1980s flared up. After months of fighting to recover, the actor was finally cleared to go home and eventually went back to work on the set of "Days of Our Lives," much to the delight of her fans.
In October 2021, Rogers told Soap Digest that she was feeling much better. "I feel terrific and I relish being vertical every day. I feel I'm very much getting back to me so now I can talk to the fans about what had transpired," she stated.
