I currently have a concussion and am doing everything I possibly can to recover from it so I can be on stage for you all again,” Skiendiel, 20, wrote in her own Instagram Story upload on Thursday. “I wanted to try my best to still make the show happen, but I’ve been strongly advised by medical professionals that I need to take this time to fully recover and come back safely.
