Where Did This Exit Rumor Originate & Is He Leaving GH?
After a Google search for information about Cameron Mathison’s status with General Hospital turned up an AI-generated claim that the actor was saying goodbye to Port Charles, rumors about him leaving the show spread like wildfire on social media. But the truth is that Mathison is not leaving General Hospital, even though his health has gotten worse on the show lately because of his wife, Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), and her use of a syringe filled with something untraceable. It seems Drew Cain is here to stay until the next GH cliffhanger of fake deaths.

What Is In The Syringe Willow Is Using?
Fans want to know what is in that syringe Willow is shooting him up with. Here are some theories:
- “Willow was already messed up from dawn of day which left her mind fragile. Losing her kids killed what sanity she had left. Two men messed with her mind!”
- “She’s a nurse, she knows insulin is untraceable”
- “I’m thinking maybe it was something that would mimic a stroke, as I am not sure they are going to kill him off at this point. It would be great if he couldn’t speak and she put him in a care facility. She could stay married to him and go to see him and torture him with how much she hates him.”
- “It could be a drug that works quickly, like potassium chloride, or it could be ketamine.”

Cameron Mathison Is Nothing Like Drew Cain
Mathison is nothing like the hated congressman on GH in real life. As a matter of fact, when he was first announced he would be playing the part, some fans did not think he could play such a tough guy role because he is known for taking ‘good guy’ roles. He plays in a lot of Hallmark/Great American Family movies, where he plays a good guy. On General Hospital, the role of Drew Cain really lets Cameron show off his versatility in acting.

I want him gone!! I despise his chat and honesty I have never liked him as an actor. He always over acts and just do not like his personality. They have him on GMA 3 now so I stopped watching. I just do not like the guy. Just my opinion.
I’m not a fan of his character or his acting. The old Drew was much better. I hope he leaves
