In a touching tribute to Paul, Ashley acknowledged his unwavering support through ambulance rides, foreign hospitals, ICU stays, and the countless medical procedures she endured far from home. “You calmed my fears and held me through ambulances, three foreign hospitals, a week in the ICU, scary ERs, countless scans and tests and injections, excruciating pain, and so much confusion all while we were alone on the other side of the world far from those we know. I love you Paul. More than I can ever say,” she wrote.
Expressing gratitude for the medical professionals who worked tirelessly during her hospitalization, Ashley specifically thanked the @JoaliBeing team for their immediate response, providing language translations and vital support. She also acknowledged her support system at home, a team of unsung heroes who tirelessly managed calls with insurance, Paul, her parents, and doctors.
Despite the ongoing recovery process, Ashley mustered the courage to share her story, assuring her fans, “I hesitated to share what’s been happening as I’m still in the throes of recovery…but I now know I’m safely on the other side of the worst.”
In a heartfelt apology for her absence, Ashley assured her followers, “I love you all. I’m healing, and I promise I’m gonna be okay ❤️”
