Debbie Reynolds Rushed to Hospital One Day After Daughter Carrie Fisher’s Death: Report 1 / 14

21st Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards - Press Room© WireImage 21st Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards - Press Room

 

Debbie Reynolds has reportedly been rushed to the hospital after suffering a possible stroke.

Reynolds, 84, was at her son’s Todd’s house in Beverly Hills Wednesday afternoon when someone from the house called 911, reports TMZ.

The news comes just one day after Reynolds’ daughter, Carrie Fisher, died after suffering a heart attack. Fisher, 60, was aboard an 11-hour flight from London to Los Angeles on Friday when she went into cardiac arrest. Paramedics removed her from the flight and rushed her to a nearby hospital, where she later died.

“Thank you to everyone who has embraced the gifts and talents of my beloved and amazing daughter,” Reynolds, 84, said on Facebook following Fisher’s death. “I am grateful for your thoughts and prayers that are now guiding her to her next stop.”

Reynolds was close to her daughter prior to her death, although the pair had a complicated relationship over the decades.

Their bond was memorably documented in Postcards from the Edge, the 1990 movie based on Fisher’s 1987 semi-autobiographical novel of the same name. Meryl Streep portrayed a Fisher-like character who returns home to her famous mother’s house after a stint in rehab. Shirley MacLaine portrayed her mother.

In recent years, Fisher wryly but lovingly documented their relationship in Wishful Drinking, the Broadway show, book and HBO special that offered her unvarnished take on her unusual childhood and later struggles with addiction.

 

 

 ETA: This was the article I found.cry

Thanks, I am hearing it only on the TV news, not in the online papers. So sad.

I had no idea she was Carrie's mother....
All male teenagers were in love with Debbie when I was growing up. Hope she makes a quick recovery....

If I had to make funeral arrangements for my daughter I would have a stroke too. Poor woman.

That was my biggest fear, when my younger sister died.

Mom is still hanging in there.

Thank you, Lord.

just saw this.  i remember so many of her movies from my childhood.  and Carrie's death shook me because she was two years younger than i am.  

my heart goes out to their family members.  to lose a mother, sister, grandmother and aunt within two days...i can't even imagine.

 I had just heard this.  So very sad. But I think if DD passed I would not be far behind.

I think my mom would have lived longer if my sister hadn't gotten so sick. Both had cancer. Died 30 hours apart. I knew before they passed that there was no way my mother was letting sister go alone.

What a shame. This has got to be so tough for the family.

That is so heart-breaking.

I think Debbie died to be with Carrie, she just could not take the loss. The whole thing is so sad and surreal.

If DD dies I  I would want to die also.

 It made me sad as well, but at my age, it made sense to me.  I would die, at least in my heart, if DD died.  Same with DS but he is an adult now. I would not want to live another day if DS died, but hang on for DD and vice versa.

Life is devastating for a mother left behind after such a tragic loss. I can understand her grief being overwhelming and I can understand just "letting go".

May they both rest in peace together.

This was so sad, I'm sure the stress was too much for Debbie Reynolds at her age.

Okay, I am going to tell you what the BIL (visiting from New York) of our friends said last night while we were out to dinner.

"Well, she at least could have waited a week so her daughter could be mourned properly without having the attention taken by the mother"

Well, everyone at the table just stopped, and stared at him. Not a word was spoken in reply, and within 10 seconds, everyone went back to their own conversations. What a jerk!

Oh, he's not MY BIL, he's the husband of my friend's sister who joined us. He's kind of a jerk in general.  I am thankful we only see him once a year!

we did that too, IKWTDS, several years ago, when we set up our family trust.

but i am reminded from this thread that i need to finish that personal page about jewelry and such.  must go fill that page out. 

i kept seeing, in regards to Debbie, how horrible it is to bury your child.  and i know that to be true from my own family.  my father's death, her third child to die within a year, broke my grandmother's heart and her spirit.  she was never the same again.  at least Debbie didn't have to bury her daughter; they will be buried together.
