Did we know that he has been fighting Prostate cancer? His health has been why he's not been in story. God, I hope he's okay.

yea we knew. Thats why we had that recurring recast last year. What's unfortunate is they kicked Taggert to the side while Trina is calling Curtis "dad". Makes me want to vomit.

Yes, yes, it bothers me SO much.

Yes I hate that. And the thing is, this will be one DNA plot they never undo. :/

Makes me despise Curtis even more.

Why won't they undo it?

my guess with Real Andrews sick they can't throw him into a frontburner story and maybe don't want to recast again. So its easier to keep Curtis as the dad.

Well, I hope he gets well.

They set it up where they can if they ever decide to go back since Selina Wu offered Curtis to have the results altered in his favor.

But don't look like they ever will.

It looked so obvious to me that they were setting it up so they could which made me think that they will.

I think it was something worse than prostate cancer, from a few years ago. Must have returned.

I'm not sure where everyone is getting that he's sick just because he's not on the show. That was the sole reason for that power performance he did in his last scenes because his role in the matter was over with. It may return later to undo but for now, what we saw was it.

Here is his Twitter page, which he actively posts and happy to say, he looks in the epitome of health:

He only lives about 30 min from LA so it's not that difficult of a drive.

It does seem the writers want to explore Trina and Curtis being child/parent rather than taking votes as to what the viewers want.

Someone above mentioned he was temp recast last year for Prostate cancer. That was in 2019 when he had that which he has stated a number times that he is now cancer free. Last year, was because of Covid and it was the show that made him take off, not because he wanted to.

He has a new book coming out that he's been working on. Could be an interesting read.

Another interesting tidbit, I see he's involved in giving away vehicles to several happy people. Not sure if those are EV's or gas ran ones.

I got it that Real had asked to be written out due to poor health.

You sure he just didn't ask to be written out? His health seems top notch.

He seems to have a lot going for him in his life that he probably doesn't need GH and only comes around because of his friends there.

Am I sure what I was told? Gee, what a question. Obvious answer. Yes.

Well he or she was wrong about a nu-Molly surfacing in mid-October.

Unless they're planning a Molly #5
