Movie icon and AIDS activist Elizabeth Taylor is in the hospital being treated for congestive heart failure
Elizabeth Taylor remained in Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Saturday where she is being treated for congestive heart failure.
The movie icon, a two-time Oscar winner and Dame of the British Empire, will turn 79 later this month.
She has battled many health problems over the years and always rallied so we hope she will recover and be able to return home soon. She first disclosed in November 2004 that she suffered from a congestive heart condition.
“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,” her publicist Sally Morrison said in a statement.

Usually not picky about headlines but it’s spelled “congestive” not “conJESTive”. The JEST makes it sound like fun and CHF isn’t much fun at all. But hey, at least it’s spelled right in the story.
