SHOCK! Elizabeth Taylor 'put on life support'

Legendary actress has congestive heart failure

Elizabeth Taylor was reportedly close to death when she was put on a life support machine earlier this week.

The veteran actress, 76, who was rushed to hospital with pneumonia on 15 July, suffers from congestive heart failure.

Her condition is now thought to have stabilised enough for her to be allowed to breath without medical help.

'The doctors thought they were going to lose her,' a source tells the National Enquirer.

'She's still very sick, but she's past the crisis.'

Liz, who uses a wheelchair because of osteoporosis, is being watched over by her family.

The star, who has been married and divorced 8 times, has 3 biological children and adopted a fourth with Richard Burton.

Elizabeth Taylor Overdosed

Elizabeth Taylor overdosed on prescription meds and booze on April 6. Partay! The 76-year-old actress woke her assistant to rush her to the hospital when she began vomiting and couldn't breathe.

Elizabeth was treated and released at Cedars-Sinai.

"Liz was panicking. She really thought she was going to die," a friend said.

Lizzie has been visiting the gay bars recently, so she might have gotten some bad shit and went into a K-hole. She's in a wheelchair, so that could have been dangerous. She could have run over a pet or an assistant. Never do club drugs if you can't handle that mess.
