Porn star Emily Willis’ condition has improved slightly since she went into cardiac arrest and fell into a coma at a celebrity rehabilitation center two months ago, with her family preparing for the worst.
Willis, 25, who is in a vegetative state in a California hospital, appears to have regained consciousness. Michael told TMZ.
The newspaper added that Willis tracks things with his eyes and can smile and become emotional during conversations.
Willis, whose real name is Ritzy Lala Banulos, had been receiving addiction treatment for eight days at a Malibu rehab center when she was found unresponsive from what was initially thought to be a drug overdose. .
She was rushed to a hospital in Thousand Oaks, California, admitted to the critical care unit, and placed on a ventilator on February 5th. The outlet reported.
Willis remains hospitalized at the same hospital.
Unfortunately for her family, doctors do not expect Willis to improve beyond what she has achieved so far.
A toxicology report found no trace of drugs in her system, leaving doctors puzzled as to how she went into cardiac arrest.
The family hopes to move Willis from a California hospital to a hospital in St. George, Utah, where he will be closer to his loved ones and receive less expensive treatment.
The former adult film actress’s brother has created a GoFundMe page to help the family pay for expensive medical bills.
The crowdsourcing campaign raised more than $65,000 of its $60,000 goal.
Following initial reports of Willis’ hospitalization, speculation and rumors about Willis’ health began to spread online, forcing his family to issue a statement earlier this month.
“We are posting this update to inform all of our friends and fans who are concerned about our sister’s health. There has been a lot of misinformation circulating about our beloved Emily’s condition and we wanted to shed light on her progress and current condition. Emily is in a vegetative coma and fighting for her life.”
“I would like to make it clear that, to the best of my doctors’ and my family’s knowledge, the reports of an overdose are not accurate. At the time of the incident, Emily was receiving the treatment and help she needed to overcome her difficulties. I did.
“She retired from the adult industry about two years ago and had aspirations to succeed in other areas of entertainment. Those who worked with her on her new career path believe that she was able to make her dreams come true. I knew I had the potential to do it.”
