When Calls the Heart Star Mamie Laverock’s Family Gives Health Update Post Her Hospitalization; See Here

Mamie Laverock is safe and sound after that tragic balcony fall that made her viral. The When Calls the Heart star’s family revealed the wonderful news on their Facebook account on Monday that Mamie is finally home after three months of the accident.

“Dreams do come true. Welcome Home Mamie,” the post read.

They posted pictures of her cheerful welcome with rain balloons and a home-baked rainbow cake with a Home Sweet Home tag. They also found out that though still in critical condition with serious injuries, she will be taken home to be taken care of from now on.

In May this year, the actress was hospitalized after a tragic fall from a five stories balcony for unknown reasons. The injuries were severe, and she even stated that they were life-threatening and left her body shattered. She has been through several major surgeries and has been on life support since then. Details regarding the loss and dismay her family has encountered during this extremely difficult period were outlined, and a GoFundMe page was created to help raise money for her continuous medical treatment.

“She sustained life-threatening injuries, has undergone multiple extensive surgeries, and is currently on life support,” the GoFundMe page devoted to her care explained. “We are all devastated, in shock, at this intensely difficult time.”

Mamie’s mother Nicole Rockmann has vowed to take action against the hospital as she stated in a June interview with the Los Angeles Times that she is going to sue the hospital. “We have a case,” she said, stressing that all they are concerned with is Mamie’s health, her desire to live, and her spirit.

“All we care about is that Mamie can make a recovery and that she’s alive and that she’s fighting and that she’s strong.”

On a much happier note, earlier in the month, Mamie walked for the first time after the terrible accident, which is a very encouraging sign on her path to getting better.

When Mamie got to those first steps, she stated feeling very weird and very wobbly as she required the services of a walker to get around.

Mamie, a star of Hallmark, who is most famous for When Calls the Heart, has had her co-stars stand up for her. Erin Krakow; one of her co-stars, conveyed the same worry in June. “We’ve been in touch and we are wishing her all the best,” the 39-year-old said adding, “She’s such a great girl and I hope it’s just the speediest recovery.”

Salman Khan’s dad Salim Khan recalls moving to Mumbai in ‘half room’ with Rs 55 rent: ‘Thodi si paiso ya job ki pareshaani toh…’

Prime Video’s much-awaited docu-series Angry Young Men has started to premiere shedding light on the lives of Salim Khan and Javed Akhtar. In one of the heartwarming revelations made on the show, Salman Khan’s dad has looked back at the time when he first moved to Mumbai and used to live at Marine Drive’s Marina Guest House in a Rs 55 rented room.

“I used to pay Rs 55 rent per month for half a room,” revealed Salim Khan adding that he initially wanted to rent the entire room for Rs 110 but that wish was never fulfilled. The actor-turned-writer had quite a comfortable life back in his home town Indore but he says ‘he had no choice’ but to move out for his aspirations.

Khan continued, “When I was leaving for Mumbai, my eldest brother told me this is not required, you’ll come running back… I didn’t want to ask for money from home, so I struggled.” This was the same time when the veteran screenwriter met the love of his life Salma Khan who was just 17 years old.

Salim Khan, then 24, recalled that Salma used to live at Mahim’s Regi House building, and “It started with us exchanging glances… We used to meet in the evening in the nearby lanes.” However, the family of the lady soon started to pressure her to either marry Salim or settle with someone who they’d arrange.

Luckily, Salim and Salma decided to bring their union on paper and they tied the knot in 1964. This early wedding came with a lot of financial difficulties for the family. “Thodi si paiso ya job ki pareshaani toh hoti hi hai- ki kya hoga kaise hoga? (There were always concerns about money or job security— how would things work out),” Salim shared adding that because he needed money to make ends meet he accepted anything including cigarette and clothing ads.

It was soon that Salim realized that his creative mind deserved a seat behind the camera. Khan shared how he could explain a character to actors like Dilip Kumar or Amitabh Bachchan, but couldn’t perform herself and that is when he decided to quit acting and focus on writing.

Angry Young Men is available to stream on Prime Video.
