Emily Willis, an American porn actress, managed to come out of a coma and is recovering after a cardiac arrest suffered in February. She showed signs of improvement this week.
After 52 days in a ‘vegetative state’, she is regaining consciousness and, according to her stepfather Michael Willis, opens her eyes, smiles and expresses emotion when talking to family members. She can now recognize people nearby and consciousness is slowly returning.
Medical expenses, travel and accommodation for the family to stay close to the hospital, a donation was made so that she could obtain the necessary amount in a moment of fragility. A fundraising campaign was created at the beginning of March and it already exceeds R$340 thousand in donations.
The majority of donations made would have been made by fans of the adult film star, who has several supporters across platforms. One of the supporters disbursed around R$20,000.
Her stepfather stated that he intends to move her to Utah, where they live, so that she can recover with her family, in an interview with the portal TMZ. She is hospitalized in California. The young woman has made a considerable amount of money from her career, but the actress’s accounts are blocked and do not list her family as beneficiaries.
The cause of the cardiac arrest has not yet been defined and the possibility of an overdose was ruled out after a toxicological examination. At age 25, she was being treated for drug addiction and weighed 80 pounds at the time of admission to rehab.
Doctors are very pleased with the improvement, but do not believe there is scope for a complete recovery. Even after being discharged, she will still require a lot of care.
