Evangeline Lilly has faced a terrifying health scare after tests revealed she suffered brain damage following an accident earlier this year.
The Lost and Ant-Man star passed out at the beach in May and fell face first onto a boulder, causing serious injury.
Lilly told fans in a video that tests showed her brain isn’t working as well as it should.
The actress said she will work with doctors to understand the injury and start the tough process of getting better.
“Now my job is to get to the bottom of it with the doctors and then get down to the hard work of fixing it,” she said.
Even with this terrifying news, the Real Steel star continued that the experience helped her slow down and feel grateful for life.
She opened up about enjoying a quiet holiday season and appreciating each day: “I feel extraordinarily grateful and blessed to be able to play one more day, one more year on this beautiful living planet.”
