Mamie Laverock was on life support after falling from a balcony.
As OK! reported, the 19-year-old suffered an undisclosed medical emergency on May 11 and was receiving "intensive" treatment for two weeks at a hospital in Winnipeg. However, after she was transferred to a facility in Vancouver, she "was escorted out of a secure unit of the hospital and taken up to a balcony walkway from which she fell five stories" on Tuesday, May 26.
The star's parents said she's doing well after undergoing surgery.
"She sustained life threatening injuries, has undergone multiple extensive surgeries, and is currently on life support," the parents noted at the time. "We are all devastated, in shock, at this intensely difficult time."
The GoFundMe page has amassed over $32,000 in donations, succeeding their $30,000 goal.
Laverock has been on nine episodes of 'When Calls the Heart.'
