Hollywood icon Sally Kirkland, 84, is currently in hospice care at a Palm Springs hospital after enduring serious health challenges this past year.
Kirkland's representative, Michael Greene, informed the Daily Mail that the actress developed dementia last year. She suffered multiple fractures including four bones in her neck, her right wrist, and left hip.
During her recovery, Kirkland contracted two life-threatening infections requiring extensive hospitalizations and rehabilitation far beyond the coverage of her insurance.
"She will not go until I’m holding her hand."
"The combination of these injuries and infections have required extensive hospitalizations and rehab beyond the 100 days insurance will cover."
The GoFundMe page states Kirkland is now "resting comfortable" at the hospice.
At 84, Sally Kirkland faces severe health struggles including dementia, multiple fractures, and infections, currently resting in hospice with close support from loved ones and ongoing fundraising for her care.
