Mamie Laverock, the 20-year-old actress from When Calls The Heart, has taken a significant step forward in her recovery after a devastating five-story fall that left her on life support nearly three months ago.
The young star was hospitalized following an undisclosed medical emergency on May 11 and was later transferred to a secure unit, where she suffered “life-threatening” injuries after falling from a fifth-floor balcony walkway on May 26.
In a heartwarming update, Mamie recently shared a video on Facebook, showcasing her remarkable progress. With the help of a walker, she managed to take her first steps, much to the delight of her family and medical staff.

Mamie’s mother had previously given an update on her daughter’s condition, stating that she had survived her injuries but faced a long road to recovery. The family had also set up a GoFundMe page to help cover the costs of Mamie’s medical treatment, which has so far raised nearly $40,000 Canadian dollars.
Last month, Mamie closed the GoFundMe that had been set up for her medical treatments and thanked fans for their outpouring of support
Mamie’s determination and resilience have inspired her fans, who have been following her progress and sending words of encouragement. Her co-star Erin Krakow had previously expressed her support for Mamie, saying that she was “special” and “resilient.”
The actress’s journey to recovery is a testament to her strength and courage, and her fans will continue to support her every step of the way.
