Denise Dowse‘s family is asking for prayers as the legendary actress is currently hospitalized in a coma, fighting for her life. This past weekend Dowse’s sister, Tracey Dowse, posted on Instagram on the actress’s account Sunday.
The Beverly Hills, 90210 and Insecure actress was hospitalized due to meningitis, a viral infection that causes inflammation and swelling surrounding the brain and spinal cord.
“As many of you have seen, my posts have been positive and uplifting. I am trying to keep my spirits up and support those who need it. As many of you know I am a private person. So this is hard for me.”
“I am requesting support and prayers be offered me and my sister, and my only immediate family @denisedowse,” she continued. “She is currently in the hospital in a coma brought on by a virulent form of meningitis. Her doctors do not know when she will come out of the coma as it was not medically induced.”
She concluded with her sister’s accomplishments calling her a “vibrant actor and director.”
Dowse is being supported and encouraged to continue fighting by her fans. One commented, “Sending lots of prayers to Denise and her family hope she feels better soon 🙏🙏🙏🙏.” While another wrote, “Sending prayers, hope and strength to all.”
Dowse gained popularity on the 90s show Beverly Hills, 90210 playing Mrs. Yvonne Teasley. She then played Judge Rebecca Damnsen on CBS’s The Guardian and Dr. Rhonda Pine on HBO’s Insecure.
We’re keeping Dowse in our prayers.
