TMZ is reporting that Star Wars star and author Carrie Fisher has suffered a massive heart attack on a flight to LAX.

Carrie Fisher suffered a massive heart attack Friday on an airplane … TMZ has learned.

Our sources say Carrie was on a flight from London to LAX when she went into cardiac arrest. People on board were administering CPR.

We’re told the emergency occurred 15 minutes before the plane landed in L.A. A flight attendant asked if there were any medical personnel on board and an EMT who was sitting in the back of the plane came up to first class and administered life-saving measures.

The plane landed just after noon in L.A. and paramedics rushed her to a nearby hospital.

Fisher, who became famous, of course, as Princess Leia from ‘Star Wars,’ has been on a book tour.

    Ms. Fisher was fortunate someone was available to perform CPR. Not too many survive a cardiac arrest — often because quick medical action is not available. In many cases, even with prompt medical intervention, the patient doesn’t survive. For those who do survive, there is also the possibility of brain damage bease there is no oxygen flowing to the brain while the hearth is stopped. An arrest can happen without warning with no symptoms or the symptoms are dismissed as something else.

    Praying that Ms. Fisher makes a full recovery with no lasting effects.

    Sorry about the typos.

    Bease should be because
    Hearth should be heart.

    Someday I will learn to proofread.
