Daisy Lemay is a fictional character on CBS's daytime drama Guiding Light. The first-born child of Harley Cooper Aitoro and Dylan Shayne Lewis, she was born on-screen in 1987 when Harley was seventeen years old. Her birth mother later gave her up for adoption.
The character has been portrayed by three actresses with Bonnie Dennison most recently playing the role from January 10, 2007 to September 18, 2009. Previously, she was portrayed by Brittany Slattery from August 24 to October 30, 1989, and from March to April 1994, and by Brittany Snow from December 3, 1998 to March 19, 2001.
Daisy was born to Dylan Lewis and Harley-Davidson Cooper in September 1987 when they were teenagers. Former high-school sweethearts, Dylan had left Harley long before she was due to give birth. Daisy was born on a stretch of highway when her mother and her uncle, Frank, got into a car accident with Alan-Michael Spaulding and Dinah Morgan as Frank was driving her to Cedars Hospital to give birth. Dinah helped Harley deliver the baby and provided support when she had to give up the baby whom she had named "Daisy", as she had planned. She was later renamed "Susan" by her adoptive parents, Jim and Connie Lemay.
When Dylan returned to Springfield in 1989 and learnt that Harley had given birth to his child, he and Samantha Marler posed as babysitters to get close to Daisy. This also allowed Harley to see her daughter, which led her then-husband, Alan-Michael Spaulding, to table a bid to buy Daisy back for Harley's sake. This offer was refused and Alan-Michael retaliated by revealing Dylan and Samantha's real identities to the Lemays. Harley's only connection to Daisy was severed and she nearly left Alan-Michael before he kidnapped her child; making plans to leave for Australia to start a new life with her and Harley. Harley refused and gave her baby back to the Lemays who subsequently moved away.
In 1994, Dylan received word of Daisy, now 8 years old, when Connie Lemay visited him and revealed that she needed him to donate part of his pancreas in order to help his daughter with a rare form of diabetes. The surgery was successful but to Dylan's heartbreak, the Lemays still refused to allow him to see Daisy.
