LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
Elizabeth Taylor’s rep has confirmed the Hollywood icon was hospitalized earlier this week. However, the rep denied a tabloid report, which claimed that the 78-year-old actress is “fighting for her life” after being “rushed to the hospital” on Tuesday.
“Elizabeth Taylor was hospitalized earlier this week when she was taken to Cedars-Sinai suffering from symptoms caused by congestive heart failure, an ongoing condition,” a rep for Elizabeth told Access Hollywood on Friday. “This issue is being addressed. She is currently being kept in the hospital for monitoring.
“Her family and close friends are appreciative of the warm support and interest of her loyal fans but have asked that people respect her privacy and allow her medical team the time and space to focus on restoring her back to health,” the rep continued.
Concerns over the Hollywood legend’s health were raised after Elizabeth failed to appear at the amfAR 25th anniversary event on Tueday, where she was scheduled to be honored by the AIDS research organization.
Despite her ongoing health problems, Dame Elizabeth did sit down with for a recent interview with Kim Kardashian, which appears in the new issue of Harper’s Bazaar. Among the topics the two discussed were which of today’s leading men Liz would like to share the screen with.
“I love Johnny Depp, and I love Colin Farrell – both brilliant, nuanced actors with great range,” Liz told Kim.

sorry about that
<!-- s:( -->:(<!-- s:( -->
I knew someone with CHF...and the symptoms she would be experiencing, is an inability to get rid of fluid from her body, including lungs. Her heart valves are not working as they should, and most likely she has fluid build up in her lungs and needs urgent treatment with diuretics on a drip to help move that fluid away. She would also be on medication for dysrrythmia (irregular heart beat), and cortisone.
I would love to "keep an eye out" for all her visitors, and see if we recognise someone in particular !!!!!! <!-- s;) -->;)<!-- s;) --> <!-- s;) -->;)<!-- s;) -->
Does anyone live near the hospital ???????? We need to keep an eye on the "Tabloids" as much as I hate to do it.
Love you Liz, and pray that you get better soon. We love you. xoxoxo
they have an article about her heart surgery in 2009. But I can't find anything about this.......weird. I would think they would be all over it.
Blessings and prayers for her!

If @HarveyLevinTMZ isn't reporting it yet, there's a reason-he confirms 1st-he is 1st on everything-he was 1st on #MichaelJackson

I think that Michael and Elizabeth have an extremely deep and wonderful relationship. Probably his healthiest one with a woman <!-- s:) -->:)<!-- s:) -->
I really hope that TMZ hasn't reported yet because it's not true. If it is true, I hope she'll get better soon.
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."Thanks for looking around as well....it makes sense that the twit from Nelson would be talking about this. I just can't imagine TMZ saying absolutely nothing! Really weird......
Hope you are having a great day!
Blessings!
PS> Yes, I think they really have something special together....I love to watch the Christmas videos of them opening gifts.....too cute, and very special to see.

Taylor is being treated at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. The rep released a statement that read in part, "Her family and close friends are appreciative of the warm support and interest of her loyal fans but have asked that people respect her privacy and allow her medical team the time and space to focus on restoring her back to health."
Taylor is a two-time Oscar winner who is just as well-known for many marriages as she is for her career.

Your in my thoughts and prayers Liz...I'm hoping you get well soon

I dont know why, but i have a bad feeling that she may leave us on Valentines Day.
If Michael has died, then he will be calling her.
This picture was taken a few days before she was hospitialised, according to that newspaper:
I am sure Liz wanted that picture of her displayed in the News of the World. The paps are so relentless. <!-- s:twisted: -->:twisted:<!-- s:twisted: --> I hope they all burn in hell and someone takes a picture of it!
