On May 30, four days after the fall, Laverock “opened her eyes for the first time,” her mother said Los Angeles Times after her body was “crushed” from the fall.
Her mother called her daughter’s recovery an “absolute miracle” and clarified that the fall was not “intentional” nor was it a suicide attempt.
“All we care about is that Mamie recovers and is alive and fighting and strong. It’s amazing that she’s with us.”
