A favorite from the second season of "Staring Over," Allison is a breast cancer survivor who educated and inspired the daytime audience with her courageous decision to share the emotional and physical effects of her illness and its treatment. She returns for season three for support in dealing with the emotional choices she was forced to make after taking a controversial genetic test as part of her treatment. However, upon her arrival in the house she is faced with a whole new set of challenges she did not expect.
