Earlier in August, Dobrevshared an updatewith PEOPLE on how she’s been feeling after the May accident that left herneeding surgerydue to a torn ACL, meniscus and fractured tibial plateau.

“I think I’m doing pretty well,” she said at the time, adding that doctors “were pretty surprised” at how fast she was recovering. “I’m a little ahead of schedule in terms of healing, but it is still a very long process.”

She continued, “There’s still a ways to go. And a lot of times at this point in the healing process, people get re-injured because they feel fine. And so they start doing normal things. So I have to kind of remind myself that I’m still healing and there’s still a little bit of time to go.”
