The Big Bang Theory star was in a car accident early this afternoon on the corner of Hollywood Blvd and La Brea in Los Angeles. It has been reported that Bialik was struck by a car full of tourist visiting from Chile.

 TMZ reports a source saying that there was blood everywhere, “her finger was almost completely severed … it was just hanging there.”

 Initially doctors weren’t sure if Mayim’s finger would be saved, but she has since updated her status on Facebook to, “(husband typing) In pain but will keep all my fingers. If u wanna See pre accident me watch The Soup tonight lol.”

I was fortunate enough to have had the chance to speak with Mayim a few months ago, and know first hand how down-to-earth and friendly the actress is. My thoughts are with Mayim and I am hopeful for her speedy recovery.
