Dame Elizabeth Taylor is likely to spend another few days in a Los Angeles hospital while being treated for congestive heart failure, a spokeswoman for the Oscar-winning actress said.
Sally Morrison said Liz was resting comfortably and had been receiving family and friends in her room at Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre.
“She had a pretty good day Saturday, and a good night,” Morrison said.
The 78-year-old actress was admitted late last week and is being treated for symptoms caused by congestive heart failure, a condition she disclosed she had back in November 2004.
Morrison didn’t know exactly how long Liz would be in the hospital but said if past treatments are any indication it could be for several more days.
“At this stage, with her history, they’re going to want to keep her in for a while just to make sure they’ve fixed what they needed to fix,” Morrison said, who did not offer details of the treatment.
Liz, who’s appeared in more than 50 films, won Oscars for her performances in Butterfield 8 (1960) and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966).
But she’s been just as famous for her marriages – all eight of them, including two to Richard Burton – and her lifelong battles with substance abuse, her weight and physical ailments, including numerous visits to the hospital for more than 20 major operations and countless treatments.
