General Hospital

Two questions:

One: Are Luke & Tracy really divorced? I mean, he keeps saying he got a quickie divorce but I'm not sure I'm buying it. And, if not, how come? Why hasn't he gone to get it?

Two: Umm, why would you bother giving Laura this treatment if you KNOW it's only temporary? Is it better for the kids to get all attached to their mom again only to lose her all over again? I wasn't sure if Genie Francis wasn't sticking around for very long or not but apparently she isn't, right, with this new news?
