Sylvester Stallone`s mother suffers heart attack

Los Angeles: Actor Sylvester Stallone`s mother Jackie has been hospitalised after suffering a heart attack.

Jackie, 91, is expected to undergo a heart surgery soon. Her husband Stephen Levine, who is also a doctor, said: "She is stable right now and recovering. She will probably have an angioplasty operation next week," reports thesun.co.uk. Her family and friends are hoping for the best. "She suffered a heart attack a few days ago and is in hospital near her home in Santa Monica, California. It was very scary for the family and everyone is very worried about her," a source said. "But she`s a fighter so we have high hopes for her recovery," the source added. Stallone`s 36-year-old son Sage also died following a heart attack in July last year. IANS
