Hallmark Channel actress Mamie Laverock "opened her eyes" and is "doing well" after surviving a five-story fall from a hospital balcony in Vancouver, Canada, last month, her mother told the Los Angeles Times.
"Let’s just hope this is the turnaround and she’s going to get through this now. I couldn't be happier that people reached out and cared. The story will be told," her mom, Nicole Rockmann, said.
The "When Calls the Heart" actress was placed on life support after falling off a balcony weeks after suffering an undisclosed "medical emergency," according to a GoFundMe crowdfunding campaign established in May.

Rockmann clarified that the fall was not "intended" nor was it a suicide attempt. She also told the outlet that the family plans to take legal action against St. Paul's Hospital, and confirmed Mamie is no longer being treated at the facility.
"We have a case. 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," Rockmann said. "It’s unbelievable that she’s with us."

In an update on her GoFundMe page, her family wrote, "Her body has been shattered. She has undergone two 11 hour surgeries with two doctors working on her, a three hour surgery and another surgery today. We have nothing but gratitude for the doctors and nurses who have been exemplary in her care since May 26."
They added that Mamie is "enduring tremendous pain," but also "continues to not give up."
"We can only hold onto the miracles of each day and continue to thank everyone for their prayers and marvel at the miracles of her story," they shared online. "Our daughter loves her life and loves her family and is fighting hard everyday."

Laverock had been in intensive treatment for two weeks prior to the fall, and was "escorted out of a secure unit of the hospital and taken up to a balcony walkway from which she fell five stories."
"She sustained life threatening injuries, has undergone multiple extensive surgeries, and is currently on life support," her parents Nicole and Rob Compton previously shared online.

Mamie was originally admitted to a hospital in Winnipeg, Canada, due to a "medical emergency" on May 11, the GoFundMe stated. "[Her mom] Nicole was able to get there in time to save her life."
The fundraiser continued, "Mamie has since been transferred to Hospital here in Vancouver. Her recovery is unclear at this time but she is alive and is showing signs of improvement."

Representatives for the Vancouver Police Department did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
