I saw that the exact wording of the update was that Ruthie is in 'stable but still critical' condition - do we know if she and the unborn baby are truly out of the woods yet? I feel like I can't exhale yet.
I can’t link it here but her husband just posted to her Instagram that she is out of the ICU, and the baby is unharmed.

I won't speculate on Ruthie Ann, but speaking from personal experience, I was surprised to find out after I was well on the way to recovering from a head injury, that I had been listed as "critical" even after I was sitting upright, eating on my own, talking to family, etc. I asked the doctor about it and he said that some types of injuries have to be monitored very closely, and thus earn the "critical" label for as long as it is necessary to monitor them. So, "stable but critical" makes sense to me in that context.
Ashley Park just posted videos of Abby and I'm losing it. What a beautiful, precious little girl she was

There have been no public updates on her condition. There is a benefit happening Thursday, though: https://54below.com/events/broadway-baby-mamas-benefit-planned-parenthood/

Any update on the awful human who has forever altered the lives of the two young families?
I've been thinking about Ruthie a lot this week. Does anybody have an update on her?

She’s out of the hospital and with family.
Update from today's Daily News - driver still hasn't been charged.
Park Slope driver had medical emergency days before crash that killed two kids; criminal probe focuses on her ill health
Medics arrived at deadly driver Dorothy Bruns’ Staten Island apartment on March 2 after receiving a call about a cardiac condition, FDNY sources said.
Her address had become a frequent stop for emergency responders, the sources said.
A medical crew went to Bruns’ home Dec. 22 after another 911 call about a cardiac condition. A crew did the same Nov. 19.
In fact, Bruns had been in such bad health that this past January, she went out on medical leave from her job, according to a source with knowledge of her history. She didn’t return until February, when she was given medical clearance.
Bruns’ medical past — and what doctors told her to do — is now at the heart of a criminal probe into her crash.
Investigators are trying to determine whether doctors had instructed Bruns to stop driving because of her health conditions.
The 44-year-old divorced mother has multiple sclerosis and suffered a seizure before running a red light in Park Slope and crashing her car into two families on March 5, investigators have said.
Charges:

The charges seem appropriate with what was reported about the incident. Hopefully when this concludes, either at trial or with a plea, it will help Ms Miles' family and the family of her friend find a bit of closure. Still, such an unimaginable loss.
Ruthie lost her unborn baby today months after the accident. No words. Only heartbreak.

Oh my god.
I just lost my breath. No way
Absolutely awful news. Sending love to her family.
My heart just dropped into my stomach. So so sad. Prayers to her and her family. So sad.
So heartbreaking. And just at the time when some semblance of healing was possibly beginning.
Such a heartbreaking story. I am so saddened by this and pray that Ruthie and her family can somehow find peace.
Terrible! I’m sick to my stomach just thinking about what this must be like for she and her husband. Just awful. Ugh.
