Discussing how she's had the 'worst start to a new year', Giuffre wrote: "I won’t bore anyone with the details but I think it important to note that when a school bus driver comes at you driving 110km as we were slowing for a turn that no matter what your car is made of it might as well be a tin can."
The 41-year-old continued: "I’ve gone into kidney renal failure, they’ve given me four days to live, transferring me to a specialist hospital in urology. I’m ready to go, just not until I see my babies one last time, but you know what they say about wishes. S**T in one hand and wish in the other & I guarantee it’s still going to be s**t at the end of the day."
She concluded the post by thanking people for being 'a great part of [her] life'.
Little information was known about the crash Giuffre was thought to have been involved in, but Western Australia Police have now confirmed that an incident occurred.
In a statement to LADBible Group, a spokesperson said: "The Western Australia Police Force received a report of a minor crash which occurred between a bus and a car in Neergabby on 24 March just after 3pm.
"The collision was reported by the bus driver the following day. The car sustained approximately $2,000 worth of damage.
"There were no reported injuries as a result of the crash," it was added.
They did not name anyone involved in the incident.
A photo shared to Giuffre's Instagram page in early March appeared to show the mom in Perth.
Elsewhere it's been said that the police confirmed that a 41-year-old woman was involved in the collision on March 24, The Guardian said.
As per the news outlet, Giuffre went to a Perth-based emergency room today (April 1).
While police say that there were no injuries, a spokesperson for Giuffre said that she'd been involved in a 'serious accident'.
"Virginia has been in a serious accident and is receiving medical care in the hospital," Dini von Mueffling told BBC News.
"She greatly appreciates the support and well wishes people are sending."
