Mamie Laverock has returned home from hospital months after her horror fall – but is still ‘severely injured’.
In May, the 20-year-old, who is most known for appearing in Hallmark’s When Calls The Heart, was placed on life support after she fell ‘five stories’ from a walkway.
Her body was ‘shattered’ in the ordeal, and she was surrounded by her family as she went through extensive surgeries and ‘intensive treatment’
In a new post on her public Facebook page, her loved ones confirmed that she was back at home – they had also prepared signs, a cake and balloons for her arrival.
Alongside snaps of the heartfelt homecoming presentation, they wrote: ‘Dreams do come true. Welcome Home Mamie.’
Sharing a further update while responding to a fan, those in charge of the account added: ‘She’s still severely injured but we will take care of her privately.

Mamie has become a staple of the Hallmark channel over the last few years, thanks to her role as Rosaleen Sullivan on the first two seasons of When Calls The Heart, which first aired on the network in 2014.
She went on to return to the role in season 10, which hit our screens last year.
As well as this, she has appeared in a string of other projects, including This Means War – starring Reese Witherspoon, Tom Hardy and Chris Pine – and a Series of Unfortunate Events.
The star was initially rushed to hospital with a medical emergency in May, with her mother Nicole by her side.
However, while receiving treatment in Vancouver, the teenager was ‘escorted out of a secure unit’ and taken to a balcony walkway on Sunday, where she ‘fell five stories’.

‘She sustained life threatening injuries, has undergone multiple extensive surgeries, and is currently on life support.
‘We are all devastated, in shock, at this intensely difficult time.’
