WOW! In very surprising new, it is being reported that Oscar winner Catherine Zeta-Jones (wife to Michael Douglas) entered into a mental health facility for 5 days to treat a Bipolar II disorder.Zeta-Jones, as of late, has stuck by her husband Michael Douglas' side as he battled cancer a few months back, and now she is the one who will need the support of her family and loved ones:Her rep says in a statement: "After dealing with the stress of the past year, Catherine made the decision to check in to a mental health facility for a brief stay to treat her Bipolar II disorder. She's feeling great and looking forward to starting work this week on her two upcoming films."
Oh. Okay...For those that aren't aware, Bipolar disorder is a mental illness marked by elevated or irritable moods alternating with periods of depression, afflicts about 6 million Americans. Those with Bipolar II tend to have more depression, with the mood swings spread over a longer time and the "up" periods less elevated. The episodes can be triggered by major stress or life changes. Sad. Hopefully she recovers quite well from this.Source
Oh No!!!!!!! Not Mother Judy....Via TMZ: Judge Judy just called Harvey Levin from her hospital bed to tell him she's fine, saying, "I'm just exhausted, and my body was telling me it needed a day to chill." Judge told Harvey, "I was feeling funky this morning ... funky enough that I knew someone should give a gander over what I got." As TMZ reported, Judge was taken by ambulance to the hospital after complaining of intestinal discomfort. Judge said, "I'm really fine. I wanted to go back to work this afternoon," adding, "I'm exhausted. I'm just tired. A lot of things just zoned together, including the bad news of the world." Her Honor also said, "At my age, I know my body. My body is fine." Judy says she's at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in L.A.., where she just had an MRI. Doctors are doing a few more tests and she says she'll be out tomorrow. Judy says, "I'm gonna go home tomorrow. It was a bad idea to fly home tonight." Judy has one big regret about going to the hospital today. She says some people from Las Vegas were coming to see her this afternoon to talk about a new Judge Judy slot machine. She says the meeting will be put on hold for a week.
Ha! Gotta love her! Good to hear she is doing better.
