“When Calls the Heart” star Mamie Laverock expressed her “gratitude” after receiving more than $39,000 in donations as she recovers from a fall from a fifth-story balcony.
“Thank you so much. I don’t even know what to say. My heart is full,” Laverock, 20, reads a message on his family’s GoFundMe page.
“Thank you again. I have no words to describe my gratitude. I love you guys. Thank you. GRANDMA.”
The actress’ mother, Nicole Rockman, and stepfather, Rob Compton, closed the fundraiser on July 18 after surpassing its $30,000 goal.
“Please know how much you have helped this family in the most difficult circumstances,” the couple wrote in a closing message. “Thank you for your thoughtfulness.”
Laverock was hospitalized in May with an undisclosed “medical emergency” and transferred to St. Paul’s Hospital in Vancouver, Canada, where her body was “broken” in a fall.
The Hallmark actress was later placed on life support and underwent “multiple major surgeries.” Her family provided updates on the fundraising page, noting that Laverock was “doing well” though her recovery “remained uncertain” at the time.
Laverock has finally turned a corner, but his mother acknowledged that his “road to recovery will be long.”
“I will soon be installing a mailbox for all your cards and greetings,” Rockman posted on his daughter’s Facebook page.
Rockman told the Los Angeles Times he plans to sue St. Paul’s Hospital in light of Laverock’s accident.
“We have a case,” said Rockman, who posted a photo of his daughter lying in a hospital bed. “All we care about is that Grandma gets better, that she’s alive, that she’s fighting and that she’s strong.”
Laverock is best known for playing Rosaleen Sullivan in “When Calls the Heart” and also had roles in “The Killing Game” and “This Means War.”
