She is currently undergoing treatment at Melbourne’s Alfred Hospital.
According to reports, she underwent several lifesaving surgeries.
Tominey’s father Brad shared the news of the mishap on Facebook.
“After the longest week of lifesaving surgeries she has miraculously defied the odds and [is] still with us,” he wrote on Saturday.
“She has the biggest fight ahead of her but is one of the strongest people I know and is ready for this fight! T-Bomb will come out of this stronger than ever!” he said.
