General Hospital (GH) spoilers tease that Heather Webber (Alley Mills) is about to receive news that she never thought she would ever hear.

Heather is currently imprisoned in Pentonville for a laundry list of crimes too lengthy to list but includes five murder she committed under the guise of the serial killer known as “The Hook.”

But earlier this year, Heather learned she was suffering from cobalt poisoning as a result of a defective hip replacement.

General Hospital Spoilers – Heather Webber Hired Ric Lansing

Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) took Heather’s case over from Scott Baldwin (Kin Shriner). Meanwhile, Heather finally had hope that she wouldn’t have to spend the rest of her life in prison.

She’s definitely changed for the better ever since the bad hip was replaced. She even befriended Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn), who was briefly in Pentonville when she was accused of killing FBI Agent John Cates (Adam Harrington).

Alexis was surprised at Heather’s kindness even though Alexis had been awful to her when she first landed in the same cell.

GH Spoilers – Alexis Davis Is About To Face A Tragedy Like Never Before

As viewers know, Alexis is about to face the greatest tragedy of her life. Her oldest daughter, Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco) will soon pass away, most likely during a transplant surgery.

Sam had agreed to donate a portion of her liver so that Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havans) would have a chance to survive.

While Lulu will likely experience a miracle, Sam won’t be that lucky. Sam’s death will hit Alexis hard, and she might have a hard time staying sober.

Perhaps it will be Heather who talks her down. After all, Heather lost her own daughter, Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl) earlier this year.

Perhaps having someone around who has experienced the exact same thing will be exactly what Alexis needs. Alexis may even decide to help Heather start her life over, now that she’s free for the first time in many years.

Heather will need acclimating to life outside of those prison walls, and Alexis knows a thing or two about that as well. Alexis and Heather could become unlikely friends and allies, which would certainly shock Alexis’ friends and family.

Alexis has done this before with Harmony (Inga Cadranel) although it didn’t turn out very well. Perhaps this time, it will.

What do you think?

Will Alexis remember the kindness Heather showed her in prison? Could Heather be the one to keep Alexis from falling off the wagon?

Will Alexis help Heather get used to live as a free woman? Anything can happen in Port Charles so stay tuned to General Hospital airing weekdays on ABC.
