~Michael McBain~

Mother: Eve McBain
Siblings: John McBain
Cousin: Shannon McBain
Signficant Romantic Relationships: Marcie Walsh

Michael McBain grew up in Atlantic City. His father died at an early age, leaving Michael to be raised by his mother Eve and his older brother John. Angry and disillusioned, Michael left home at an early age to attend boarding school on a scholarship. College followed and then medical school. Along the way, Michael grew hardened and bitter, eventually losing his soul. He came to Llanview and started interning at Llanview Hospital.

When Al Holden died, his love for Marcie Walsh was so strong that it brought his spirit back to earth. Desperate to be near Marcie, Al's spirit inhabited Michael's soulless body, taking control. There, Al/Michael attempted to woo Marcie so that she would fall in love with Al/Michael. It began to work, and on Valentine's Day, Marcie realized that Al's spirit inhabited Michael's body. Reunited, Al told Marcie that his spirit had to return to heaven, but his soul would always reside in Michael. After a final kiss, Al left for heaven, and Michael (now in control after Al's spirit had left) and Marcie had no recollection of his ever being there. However, both did remember their courtship of the last few months and embarked on a new relationship. They are currently enjoying getting to know each other better and spending time together, despite their busy schedules.
