Jamie-Lynn Sigler posts about ‘devastating’ life challenges after son, 10, leaves ICU
was finally out of the hospital following a major health crisis.Sigler shared author and keynote speaker Laura Dawn’s post that featured the definition for “lifequake.”“A significant, sudden and unexpected shift in the trajectory of your life that initially feels devastating but has the beneficial outcome of catalyzing personal growth, transformation and rebirth,” it read.Over the weekend, Sigler announced on Instagram that her son, who was diagnosed with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) and went through a “nightmare” experience in the ICU, left the hospital after a 33-day stay.She shared a video of Beau walking down a hallway in the hospital as people lined up on both sides and cheered for him.“My brave boy, you are a walking miracle,” Sigler wrote about Beau, whom she shares with husband Cutter Dykstra.“The rest of this story will be Beau’s to tell, if he chooses to one day,” she noted, before thanking the “incredible” staff at Dells Children’s Hospital in Austin, Texas for their “patience, dedication, and expertise.”Sigler revealed Beau has ADEM — a very rare, neurological immune response that sometimes kids can get after contracting a simple virus — at the beginning of the month.“To say this has been hard, is an understatement, and I’ve never felt more broken,” she wrote via Instagram on Aug. 6.On her podcast with Christina Applegate, Sigler said her oldest son had a 105-degree fever and screamed that his head hurt when he was rushed to the hospital.

‘Friends’ Instagram account honors Matthew Perry on what would’ve been his 55th birthday
The post featured a photo of Perry, who played Chandler Bing on the beloved NBC sitcom.“On this day, we remember the light that was Matthew Perry,” the tribute said.Perry was found dead in his hot tub at age 54 last October after a ketamine overdose.On Thursday, five people including Perry’s live-in assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa, were charged in connection with the actor’s death.Iwamasa, who had no medical training, was injecting the drugs into Perry during the final days of his life, including the last three that prosecutors allege resulted in his “death and serious bodily injury.”Two doctors, Salvador Plasencia and Mark Chavez, were also charged in connection with Perry’s death, as well as alleged street dealer Erik Fleming, and Jasveen Sangha, the so-called “Ketamine Queen of Los Angeles.”Prosecutors said that Plasencia and Chavez allegedly supplied the “17 Again” star with about 20 vials of ketamine in exchange for around $55,000 in cash.Perry’s final, fatal dose of ketamine was supplied by Sangha, according to prosecutors. The Hollywood star long struggled with addiction including during the 10 years that he was on “Friends.”In a recent interview with The Times UK, “Friends” creators Marta Kauffman and David Crane said they learned of Perry’s struggles with drugs and alcohol while they were shooting the show.“There was a point where we said to him: ‘Do you want to stop [being in the show]?’ And he was adamantly like: ‘No, this is really important to me,’ ” said Crane, 67.Kauffman, 67, shared in the interview how Perry should be honored today.“Two things come to mind [about how to celebrate him]: one of them is to donate to drug treatment centres — let’s fight the disease.
