Dame Elizabeth Taylor to Undergo Heart Procedure

Copyright 2009 / The Insider
Dame Elizabeth Taylor has taken to her Twitter account to break news of a health procedure she is undergoing.

Dame Elizabeth tweeted Tuesday: "Friends, I would like to let you know before it gets in the papers that I am going into the hospital to have a procedure on my heart."

Her next tweet read: "Very new and involves repairing my leaky valve using a clip device, without open heart surgery, so that my heart will function better."

Dame Elizabeth then asked her fans for their prayers, saying, "Any prayers you happen to have lying around I would dearly appreciate. I'll let you know when it's all over. Love you.”

  • Dear Mrs Taylor, I am not surprised that your health problems are the consequences of all the shock and sadness caused by Michael's death.

  • Hold on Elizabeth, and know that God is bigger than everything. My prayer is with you. And I know, if Michael Jackson were here, he would be by your side, as you were by his side and loved him.
