ATWT Colleen Zenk Pinter
Anony Miz
The Early Show on Thursday (10/26).
ORAL CANCER: After much speculation about her newly developed lisp, As
the World Turns star Colleen Zenk Pinter has finally exposed her secret
health battle. She wasn't a smoker or a drinker, yet this soap opera
veteran was diagnosed with oral cancer. In the final stages of her
treatment, she is now ready to talk about this debilitating disease and
how it is much more common than you'd think.

OMG! I am so sorry to hear this! I hope the treatments will be
successful. Wonder if she knows now what the prognosis is, or it will
take some time?

Hopefully she will have good things to report on how she beat it.

Her speech has improved to the point where I had almost forgotten
about her problem. In the last few scenes she had, there was the
slight "s" problem, but the majority of her words were crisp. I took
that as a sign that she "final stages of treatment" meant she had
nearly recovered, not that anything was terminal. I hope I'm right
about that.

Thank God she's alright now. It must have been a terrible time. Half her
tongue was reconstructed. What a trooper!

I saw her on TV and she said she is "Cancer free"... which was a great
relief. My mother died of oral cancer, but unlike Colleen she was a
lifelong smoker.

She's lucky that this happened after MADD left P&G. God knows what the
hell would have happened to CZP if MADD were still at the helm of P&G.

And, she certainly would not have had actual scenes to play where the
audience wondered if she'd had dental surgery - or something - because of a
slightly perceptible seeming numbness to her usual incredible articulation!
I was editing something not long ago that caused me to see the end credits
of one of the PGP soaps. Never thought we'd wish for the days pre-MADD.

When MADD first arrived, everyone, it seemed, was singing her praises...
INCLUDING ME. In one of my posts after she first arrived, I actually
said something like, "Thank God for MADD!".
Little did we know, huh???

I've been looking for it at a good price for some time now. I will look
forward to hearing.

They showed a clip of her from the show, and she commented on how
noticeable it was [she hadn't seen it before]. She then said it comes
and goes, I assume she means the ability to use her tongue as before the
surgery.
To reconstruct what was removed from one side of her tongue, they took
what was needed from the other side. I think it is a miracle that she
speaks as well as she does and it seems like she was out very little
time. I so hope this nightmare is over for her too.

Scrounge around amazon.com or BN.com (Barnes and Noble). I'm pretty
sure the copy I have is a "used" copy (either that or a remainder copy),
so you might be able to find a copy for dirt cheap at either of these
two outlets.

I like http://www.bookfinder.com -- searches a whole lot of used book
sites at once.

That is the way that abe.com works, too.
