Hallmark Channel’s Mamie Laverock celebrated a milestone in her recovery after surviving a five-story fall from a hospital balcony in May.The 20-year-old “When Calls the Heart” actress stood up and took her first steps in a since-deleted video shared on her official Facebook page Friday.“Thank you surgeon’s, thank you prayers, thank you Lord.

Mamie has just taken her first steps,” the caption alongside the since-deleted clip said.As the video began, Laverock was sitting on a hospital bed with a patch over her left eye and both of her feet encased in aircast boots as two family members stood behind her before joining others who were behind the camera.One medical staffer stood next to Laverock on her left side while another wheeled over a walker and placed it in front of her.

Laverock said, “I don’t know if I can still …” “I’m here to help,” a staffer on her right told her.The actress then placed her hands on the walker. “So what you can do, you can even push off from the bed,” the same medic advised Laverock.Laverock grabbed one of the walker’s arms and carefully stood up with her other hand on the bed as the group gathered behind the camera clapped and cheered.The TV star smiled.“Here’s to standing,” she said.“It does feel really weird,” Lavarock added. “It feels really weird.”“How does it feel on the feet?” one of the medical workers asked Laverock.“It feels very wobbly,” she responded.“It’s also kind of like you’re wearing ski boots,” one of Laverock’s family members remarked.“Yeah, it is,” she agreed.“Could you even separate out your feet a little bit there?” the medic to her right asked.“Oh my gosh, the ski boots are really hard,” Laverock said with a nervous laugh.

Peer Support, Positive Mindset Predict Resilience in ADHD Teens: Study
August 28, 2024Peer acceptance, a sense of self-efficacy, and a stress-is-enhancing mindset are strong predictors of resilience in older teens with ADHD, according to a small longitudinal study published in Child Psychiatry & Human Development.1The study, which followed 113 adolescents with ADHD from 10th to 12th grade, found that higher levels of peer acceptance, self-efficacy, and a growth mindset in 10th or 11th grade predicted higher levels of resilience 1.5 to 2 years later.Participants from the present study were assessed at three points:Peer acceptance at the start of the study explained 24% of the variance in resilience at follow-up. Teens with less severe ADHD symptoms were significantly more likely to report feelings of peer acceptance.Resilience was measured using the Brief Resilience Scale (BRS), which asked teens to measure their agreement with statements such as “I tend to bounce back quickly after hard times” and “I take a long time to get over setbacks in my life.”Self-efficacy mediated the relationship between peer acceptance and resilience, accounting for 39% of the variance in resilience at follow-up.“Greater self-efficacy has been associated with positive outcomes for children and adolescents with ADHD, including lower levels of depression and internalizing symptoms, and reported higher quality of life,” wrote Elizabeth Chan, lead author of the study.Though ADHD symptom severity did not change the positive effect of self-efficacy on resilience, existing research shows that ADHD symptoms can negatively impact self-esteem.A stress-is-enhancing mindset accounted for 31% of the variance in resilience.
