Lots and lots of good thoughts and prayers for Colleen! May she truly beat it this time! What a terrible ordeal she's been through.
I applaud her candor and her desire to inform the public about this and how it can be prevented. What a wonderful think she's doing and I hope in return her courage and determination help her in her fight.
I think she's got the total support of ATWT fans and we'll always love her and be behind her in her fight. She doesn't have to worry about that. I'm pleased that she feels so much support from the show too.
I hope she feels better and comes back to ATWT soon. We miss her.
