Doctors began lifting Joan Rivers from her medically induced coma Sunday at Mount Sinai Hospital as Melissa Rivers kept her fingers crossed.
Melissa, Joan’s only child, is nail biting at best, waiting and wondering how her mother will respond, but the expected prognosis is not good, and now she is weighing her legal options..
“The waking-up process has begun and will take until Tuesday,” a source close to the family told the Daily News. “There is real concern that the part of the brain that controls motor skills may have been compromised, leaving her as either a vegetable or in a wheelchair.” source
Already, Melissa is considering a lawsuit against Yorkville Endoscopy, the folks who had Joan under their care.
“Shock and upset is turning to anger, and they are looking for someone to blame,” said a source close to the family, hinting at action against Yorkville Endoscopy, where Rivers had a routine throat procedure on Thursday.
