Tom Sizemore has “no more hope” of getting better after he had a brain aneurysm, and his family has said they are making an end-of-life decision.
Tom Sizemore, who is 61 years old, was taken to the hospital on February 18 and has been in a coma ever since, according to a source.
The actor had a stroke at his home in Los Angeles around 2:00 a.m. local time. He was rushed to intensive care, where his manager, Charles Lago, told Sizemore’s worried fans about his condition.
He said:
He is in the hospital. His family is aware of the situation and are hoping for the best. It is too early to know about [a] recovery situation as he is in critical condition under observation,
while adding that it was a “wait and see” situation.
The family of the actor from “Saving Private Ryan” has been told in a heartbreaking way that he will not get better from his illness. They now have to make a heartbreaking decision about how he should die.
Lago told the press what the family wanted to say on their behalf. He said:
Today doctors informed his family that there is no further hope and have recommended end-of-life decision.
The family is now deciding end-of-life matters and a further statement will be issued on Wednesday. We are asking for privacy for his family during this difficult time, and they wish to thank everyone for the hundreds of messages of support and prayers that have been received. This has been a difficult time for them.
In the 1990s, Sizemore became known for his roles in hit movies like Point Break (1991), True Romance (1993), and Natural Born Killers (1994).
Saving Private Ryan, which came out in 1998, was the best movie he had been in so far. The movie about World War II, which also starred Tom Hanks, was nominated for 11 Oscars and won five, including Best Director for Steven Spielberg.
According to a source, Sizemore’s fame and money took a toll on him, and he became addicted to heroin and crystal meth. His autobiography, By Some Miracle I Made It Out of There: A Memoir, tells the story.
Sizemore’s problems with drugs started when he was just 15 years old. In 2003, he beat up his girlfriend, Heidi Fleiss, and was sentenced to six months in prison. He had to go to rehab and anger management classes.
At this time, we are thinking about Sizemore and his family.
