I've only been half-watching GH these days but it seems like there is an obvious place for Laura. Anna now has a long lost child who has come back with anger and hatred and it is so reminiscent of the early Laura/Nicholas years. I know Laura and Anna haven't really developed a strong friendship-- and, of course, I'd love to see Laura in more than just a supporting role-- but it would be nice to see the building of strong female friendships among these strong female characters. Laura would have such wisdom and experience to offer Anna. And who else could truly relate to one's long lost child suddenly popping up in the same town? Seems like an opportunity for connection and friendship.
