Ban shared she was initially cleared after receiving an assessment. However, a paramedic recommended going to the hospital for a cat scan.

As Ban noted, “This saved my life.” She continued, “I went in a taxi with Jett and within 30 minutes they told us I had a brain bleed and needed to be airlifted to the trauma hospital. Last thing I remember was being intubated and waking up after an emergency craniotomy with Jett by my side.”

Ban acknowledged that there would be “a long road of recovery ahead but I’m a survivor.” She also shared her thanks to the ski patrol, her doctors and nurses, and her “family and friends.” Ban ended the post writing that she was “grateful and blessed to see the new year.”

In the carousel post, Ban shared a variety of photos during her recovery process. In the first, she could be seen in a hospital bed with half of her hair shaved off. Another photo depicted the back of her head, showing a stitched incision.
