LOS ANGELES - Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband said the 94-year-old actress will undergo an operation at a Los Angeles hospital where she also is being treated for an infection.

Frederic Prinz von Anhalt said Sunday that doctors at UCLA Ronald Reagan Medical Center planned to reattach a tube in Gabor's stomach that became loose and led to bleeding.

The celebrity socialite was rushed to the hospital Saturday.

Von Anhalt says Gabor has opened her eyes but is not speaking or responding.

He says doctors are waiting for antibiotics to take effect on the infection.

He calls his wife a "fighter" and says he's "very optimistic."

The Hungarian-born Gabor has been hospitalized repeatedly since falling out of bed and breaking her hip in July 2010. She had a leg amputated in January.

It's time to let go.

Give me a break! The Dr's have already found the problem is an infection, which makes your statement of Munchausens invalid! On another note, this poor woman is in her 90's, has had a leg amputated and put through many hospitalizations. WHO is afraid of death here, the "prince" or, the Doctors, and hospital that lose the income derived for not putting an end to this struggling life of hers.

There lies Medicare's biggest problem, end of life care. We have the ability to keep people going on forever using machines and tube and the likes. Some day people will learn that dying is as much of a part of life as being born.

I don't think that's it. That usually happens with a parent and child.

When you're old and you break a hip, it's usually down hill from there. Most people are dead within a year.
