Dame Elizabeth Taylor has just Tweeted that she will be going into the hospital to undergo surgery to repair a leaky heart valve. Rather than the media getting the news first, she opted to use Twitter to inform her fans. Good move.
She wrote:
Dear 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.
It’s very new and involves repairing my leaky valve using a clip device, without open heart surgery, so that my heart will function better.
Any prayers you happen to have lying around I would dearly appreciate. I’ll let you know when it’s all over. Love you, Elizabeth
You are in our prayers.
We wish the surgery goes according to plan.
