GENERAL HOSPITAL Star Kimberly McCullough Recalls Robin and Stone’s Powerful Love Story on World AIDS Day

On World AIDS Day, GENERAL HOSPITAL actress Kimberly McCullough spoke out about how honored she is to have played Robin over the years.

“In 1995, I had the privilege of playing out a storyline on GH revolving around a young man who died of AIDS,” she reminded fans on Twitter of Robin’s tragic romance with Stone.

Robin was infected with HIV and forced to watch as the man she loved slowly died of the illness before her eyes. However, the young woman survived and continues to thrive despite her diagnosis. “Today I am proud to still be playing a character who is living with HIV, has a healthy daughter and a career as a doctor,” McCullough proclaimed.
