Home and Away‘s Tammin Sursok has opened up on her recent hospitalization.
Recognized for portraying Dani Sutherland in the Summer Bay soap – a role she played from 2000 to 2004 – the actress took to Instagram yesterday (March 28) to reveal that she’d been concussed after falling off a bed headfirst during the making of a comedy clip.
The video poked fun at newborn-baby photoshoots, with Sursok posing in silly positions while wrapped in a towel up to her neck.
Her subsequent bullet points read: “Concussions can happen 24 hours after you do that stupid thing, so watch for symptoms […] CT scans are weirdly soothing and when pumped with anti nausea medication can make you nap […] When you have small kids the ER is like a mini vacation […] Neck braces are good to sleep upright so maybe I’ll take one home for the plane.”

“Thanks for all the well wishes,” added Sursok, “feeling slightly better. Just a bruised brain and ego. And the scan showed I did have a brain. So that’s good.”
