The In Depth Story: “She’s
just incredibly relentless
and truly loves the work,”
portrayer Bri-
ana Nicole Hen-
r y contends.
“For her, it’s
about changing
people’s lives
by keeping
them safe and
preventing
them from being hurt.”
Unfortunately, Jordan’s
best quality can also be her
greatest weakness — as
was the case when she
kept chasing Ryan at the
expense of her own health!
Before GENERAL HOSPITAL’s
Jor dan returned to the police
station on light duty, her forced
recovery leave allowed her a
rare opportunity to hang out
with her family. But might the
workaholic be able to maintain
a healthy balance between her
professional and personal lives
when — and if! — she resumes
her position full-time?
Has
Jordan
Changed?
“Jordan poured her heart
into fi nding Ryan,” Henr y
reminds, because that case
became personal. “People
she’s around all the time
were directly affected. And
Lulu was a big one for her.
She was in Jordan’s bridal
party! Having someone
that close to
home involved
broke her
heart.”
It also almost
killed her.
How ever, Jor-
dan was ulti-
mately forced
to face her failing health
and allow her loved ones
to take care of her. And
since that group of kidney
bandits came together to
literally steal her life back
from Ryan, her period of
healing has been a gift.
Sure, she gets stir crazy,
but she’s shared romantic
afternoons with her hub-
by, done lunch with T.J.
and is continuing to bond
with Aunt Stella.
Henr y is hopeful that
Jordan’s health crisis has
been a wake-up call. Not
only might taking a step
back afford her a better
quality of life, but when
she does get back to work
full-time, it might also
help her professionally. “I
imagine that in some ca-
pacity, it would transform
the way she handles these
cases if she was taking
better care of herself,”
says Henr y.
But only time will tell
how that goes. “She’s just
such a workhorse!”
ABC“I’m technically only working part time,” Jordan told her
temporary replacement, Mac. “This mystery is all yours.”
“Having
someone that
close to home
involved
broke her
heart.”
