DATES
Gabe McNamara
Gabe dated Sarah's younger sister Cindy, who then introduced him to Sarah when she and Gabe encountered one disaster after another in their short-lived relationship. Cindy was invaluable in helping Gabe get passed the grief of their shared loss.

In 1996, when she heard from Gabe that he and Lorna were engaged to be married, Cindy took a job at BCGH. She was determined to split them up and have Gabe for herself. After Cindy assaulted Lorna, Gabe learned that she had also been to blame for Sarah and Sam's deaths. Cindy had stood by and watched them die. Despite all she had done to him, he stood by her while she was taken into custody. He was shot moments later and died at Cindy's feet.

FLIRTATIONS
Morgan Winthrop
Morgan made romantic overtures to new nurse Cindy, to which she responded. But Morgan was to mysteriously disappear before the relationship could develop any further.

LEGAL HISTORY
In 1996, Grant blackmailed Cindy into helping him frame Jake McKinnon. Grant threatened to reveal notes from Cindy's psychiatrist that revealed Cindy had let her sister and nephew burn to death in a fire.

In 1997, Cindy decided to become a jewel thief, following in the footsteps of the international jewel thief, the Silver Rose. She framed Dashiell St. George for the crimes, a man she believed to be the true Silver Rose thief, though her evidence was scant. Grant forced her into retirement.

Cindy almost killed Grant when she shot him in 1998, though she had intended a flesh wound only.

MEDICAL HISTORY
Cindy suffered from seriously low self-esteem.

CURRENT AND FORMER OCCUPATIONS
