Ashley Judd Gets Appendicitis While Shooting In A Hospital
Ashley survived a potentially fatal bout of appendicitis because she was filming in a hospital when she fell ill. The actress was shooting new movie “Helen” in Vancouver, Canada when an acute attack of the illness led to a collapse on set at Ridge Meadows Hospital on November 25.
Judd was immediately admitted to the same medical center and underwent emergency surgery to remove her diseased appendix.
A source tells the National Enquirer, “Luckily, the cast and crew were filming at a real hospital, so when paramedics arrived, they simply put Ashley on a stretcher and wheeled her into an operating room nearby.”
While Judd recovers, production on Helen has been halted.
