Tatum O’Neal is still recovering from her near-death experience three years ago, when she overdosed on pain medication, opiates and morphine and had a stroke that put her in a coma for six weeks and has left her with lingering aphasia.

The 59-year-old has struggled with sobriety since her teens, growing up in Hollywood and becoming embroiled in a volatile marriage and ongoing estrangement and reconciliation with her father, fellow actor Ryan O’Neal. "I’ve had a hard hard hard hard hard life," O’Neal told People in a recent interview about her recovery. "And I rarely cry, but I am crying a lot more lately.

But that’s a very good thing for my life in general as I keep going forward in my life." At just 10, O’Neal won a best supporting actress Oscar for her role in "Paper Moon," still the youngest actor in history to do so.
