Thanks for the heads-up on Veronica. I’ll definitely be watching for her.

I wasn't there, but my sister went to GH Fan Club Weekend in Glendale, CA and told me that various cast members mentioned that Veronica could not handle the workload of a soap and decided to leave. That is now why they have a new psychic with Maura West.

It was originally going to be a short stint (5 eps.), but they wanted to expand on the role and Veronica couldn't do it.
