"Now that we have a definite date [for the soap's finale], it will be easier for me. After I rest for like a week, or maybe after the Star Magic Ball, they're just gonna take out the lump. It's a surgery... They are just going to take out the cyst," she said.

According to Laurel, the cyst is benign but she still wants it removed. "Of course at first it was alarming to them because I had a lot. I have in my lymph nodes, my breast, and my ovaries," she shared.

"They say that sleep is the number one thing that you should do, but my profession requires me to not sleep. So you are torn, you want to do what you love and you are blessed to get paid to do what you love. But then your body... I've been puyat for 21, going 22 years this September," she said.
