Elizabeth Taylor wanted to die and refused to go under the knife

Elizabeth Taylor apparently died of a “massive heart attack”. The screen icon, 79, passed away on March 23. She is said to have withered away to a mere 94 pounds before her wearied heart gave out.

“Elizabeth died of a massive heart attack,” an insider told American tabloid the National Enquirer. “In the end, her heart had become so enlarged it just burst! We still can’t believe she’s gone.

“The doctors wanted to go in to clean up her clogging arteries and surgically repair her leaking heart.

“They’d done what they could noninvasively, but they recommended bypass surgery and valve replacement to correct the problem. There were risks involved, but Elizabeth had a good track record when it came to surgical recovery. It may have bought her another 10 years.

“But Liz tubbornly refused to go under the knife and said she’d take her chances.

“Everyone regrets her decision. She may have lived for many more years.

“Elizabeth was ready to leave this world. She was tired of suffering.

“She decided she had enough, and Elizabeth died as she lived – on her own terms.”
