Another post featured a "personally designed stunning hospital gown" created by designer Claudia Da Pointe, with photos showing Laverock lying on her hospital bed and holding a mug.
The touching posts of the hug and Laverock's birthday come after Rockmann shared updates on her daughter's recovery on Laverock's official Facebook page on Wednesday, June 26.
“Thank you for your healing messages for Mamie,” the post began. “Mamie survived her injuries, but her road to recovery will be long. I will be setting up a mailbox for all your cards and well wishes shortly.”
She concluded the message with, “Warmth, Nicole.”

They later revealed that Laverock had been in intensive treatment for two weeks in the Canadian city after she "was escorted out of a secure unit of the hospital and taken up to a balcony walkway from which she fell five stories" on May 26.
"She sustained life-threatening injuries, has undergone multiple extensive surgeries, and is currently on life support," the post read. "We are all devastated, in shock, at this intensely difficult time."
In a further update, the family shared that Laverock's body had "been shattered" in the incident.
"She has undergone two 11-hour surgeries with two doctors working on her, a three-hour surgery, and another surgery today. We have nothing but gratitude for the doctors and nurses who have been exemplary in her care since May 26," the message read.
"Mamie is 'doing well' comparatively to when she arrived. Doing well because she has survived these extensive surgeries. She is enduring tremendous pain and continues to not give up," the post added.
