Ashley Judd shares new photo from ‘grueling’ 55-hour rescue in Congo

Actress Ashley Judd shared details along with a gallery of photos on Instagram after her ‘catastrophic accident’ from the Congo rainforest. The actress nearly lost her leg after suffering a leg injury upon tripping over a fallen tree, reports CNN. She first spoke about the incident over the weekend, hoping to call attention to the plight of the impoverished nation’s need for better access to health care. “Without my Congolese brothers and sisters, my internal bleeding would have likely killed me, and I would have lost my leg,” Judd wrote. “I wake up
weeping in gratitude, deeply moved by each person
who contributed something life giving and spirit salving
during my grueling 55 hours odyssey,” the actress added.
