Carrie Fisher in critical condition
Quote: | Actress Carrie Fisher, known to fans around the world as Princess Leia from the Star Wars film franchise, is in critical condition at this time after suffering a heart attack on a plane. This, according to the Los Angeles Times, which reports Fisher was rushed by paramedics to an LA hospital after her flight landed at LAX around noon Friday.
Fisher was on a flight from London to Los Angeles when she collapsed. TMZ says an EMT who happened to be a passenger on the plane apparently gave her CPR. According to the story in the Times, a witness who was on the plane with Fisher said she appeared to be in distress.

The prognosis doesn't sound good. Various reports stated that she was in full cardiac arrest on the plane, for at least 10 minutes before landing. TMZ (not the most reputable source) reported that it took another 15 minutes for paramedics to get a pulse. If true, that's an awfully long time for the brain to be deprived of oxygen. |

As weird as it sounds I think it probably made a huge difference that this happened on a plane where they are prepped for this sort of thing rather than alone in a hotel room.

Quote: | Carrie Fisher’s Brother Says Actress Is In Stable Condition
LOS ANGELES (AP) – Carrie Fisher is in stable condition after suffering a medical emergency aboard a flight Friday.
Her brother, Todd Fisher, told The Associated Press that she was “out of emergency” and stabilized at a Los Angeles hospital Friday afternoon. He said he could not discuss any other details about what happened.
The “Star Wars” star suffered medical trouble during a flight from London and was treated by paramedics immediately upon landing in Los Angeles around noon Friday, according to reports citing anonymous sources. Celebrity website TMZ, which first reported the incident, said anonymous sources told them the actress suffered a heart attack.
Fisher’s publicists and representatives for her mother, Debbie Reynolds, and her daughter, Billie Lourd, did not immediately return calls from the AP. |

Stable doesn't really mean much it just means she isn't getting worse which is a good thing but Joan Rivers was stable and then died shortly after. |

Not sure what you mean but TMZ is usually the first to break with these celebrity stories and have details most of the other mainstream outlets don't confirm until much later....but anyways I think it was bad news when I heard she didn't have a pulse for 15 minutes. The family probably kept it to themselves so they can say their goodbyes. |

Being a actor, actress must be a very difficult vocation. Switching from fantasy to reality, screen presence to real life, must take it's toll. So many actors, actresses, have drug problems. They must be a buffer. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
