Doctors have said that Oscar-winning actress Elizabeth Tayor is close to death after her heart began to fail.
Taylor, 74, is currently confined to her bedroom and has apparently planned her funeral.
Inside sources have revealed that the actress will be buried next to former husband Richard Burton, according to The Daily Mail
"Liz is inching closer to death every day and she knows it. It is not a pretty picture," a friend told the newspaper. "She's not leaving a lot of money to her children. She wants the bulk of her fortune to go to AIDS research."
Doctors say patients who suffer from such heart disease could hasten their death by becoming depressed.
New York-based heart specialist Dr Richard Stein, who has not treated the Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? star, said: "Once a person gives up hope the prognosis is very poor."
