Tom Sizemore has "no further hope" of recovering from a brain aneurysm he suffered, and his family has stated they are making an end-of-life decision.

Sizemore, 61, was hospitalized on February 18 at Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Los Angeles and has been in a coma since, per the Guardian.

The actor suffered a stroke at around 2:00 AM local time at his Los Angeles home and was rushed to intensive care where his manager Charles Lago updated concerned fans about Sizemore's condition.

Speaking to Fox News, he said: "He is in the hospital. His family is aware of the situation and are hoping for the best. It is too early to know about [a] recovery situation as he is in critical condition under observation," while adding that it was a "wait and see" situation.

The family of the Saving Private Ryan star has heartbreakingly been told that he will not recover from his condition and now face a devastating end-of-life decision.

Lago released a statement to the press on behalf of the family. He said, via BBC News: "Today doctors informed his family that there is no further hope and have recommended end-of-life decision.

"The family is now deciding end-of-life matters and a further statement will be issued on Wednesday. We are asking for privacy for his family during this difficult time, and they wish to thank everyone for the hundreds of messages of support and prayers that have been received. This has been a difficult time for them."

Sizemore found fame on the big screen in the 1990s where he would star in hit movies such as Point Break in 1991, 1993's True Romance, and Natural Born Killers in 1994.

In 1998 he would feature in his biggest feature yet, Saving Private Ryan. The World War Two movie also starring Tom Hanks was nominated for 11 Academy Awards and would win five of them, including Best Director for Steven Spielberg.

As reported by the BBC, fame, and money took their toll on Sizemore, as he developed an addiction to heroin and crystal meth as outlined in his autobiography, titled By Some Miracle I Made It Out of There: A Memoir.

Sizemore's battle with drugs began when he was just 15 years old, and the actor was also sentenced to six months in prison in 2003 for assaulting his girlfriend Heidi Fleiss and was ordered to attend rehabilitation and anger, management classes.

Tom Sizemore, best known for starring in Saving Private Ryan, has died at the age of 61.

As reported by BBC News, the 61-year-old actor sadly died on Friday (March 3) after suffering from a brain aneurysm at his Los Angeles home on Saturday, February 18.

The heartbreaking news was confirmed by the actor's manager, Charles Lago, who revealed that Sizemore passed away at a hospital in Burbank, California, with his brother Paul and teenage twin sons at his side.

In a brief statement, Lago said: "The Sizemore family has been comforted by the hundreds of messages of support."

Additionally, brother Paul has said: "I am deeply saddened by the loss of my big brother Tom. He was larger than life. He has influenced my life more than anyone I know.

"He was talented, loving, giving and could keep you entertained endlessly with his wit and storytelling ability."

His sons, Jayden and Jagger, have asked for privacy at this difficult time.

Sizemore was first hospitalized earlier this month at Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center and had been in critical condition, per The Guardian.

The Heat actor suffered a stroke on February 18 at around 2:00 AM at his Los Angeles home and was rushed to intensive care where his manager, Charles Lago, updated fans about Sizemore's condition.

Speaking with Fox News, Lago said: "It is too early to know about [a] recovery situation as he is in critical condition under observation," while explaining that it was a "wait and see" situation.

On February 28, the family of the Black Hawk Down star revealed they had been told that he wouldn't recover from his condition and that they had to make a devastating end-of-life decision.

As cited by BBC News, his manager released a statement to the press on behalf of the family, which read: "Today doctors informed his family that there is no further hope and have recommended end-of-life decision.

"The family is now deciding end-of-life matters and a further statement will be issued on Wednesday. We are asking for privacy for his family during this difficult time, and they wish to thank everyone for the hundreds of messages of support and prayers that have been received. This has been a difficult time for them," Lago added.

Sizemore rose to fame for his role as the sergeant at Tom Hanks' side in the 1998 movie Saving Private Ryan, and as commander of an army ranger battalion in the 2001 film Black Hawk Down - which won five Academy Awards.

He also appeared in Strange Days and crime drama Heat - which both came out in 1995 - and was nominated for a Golden Globe Award in 2000 for best actor in a miniseries or film made for TV for his role in Witness Protection.

The Red Planet star has struggled with drug addiction during his acting career and had been arrested several times for driving under the influence and substance possession.

Back in 2003, he was convicted of domestic violence against his ex-girlfriend Heidi Fleiss and three years later he pleaded no contest to using methamphetamine outside of a motel.

Sizemore candidly discussed his journey to sobriety in an interview with Fox News Digital two years ago and shared his commitment.

"I’ve been trying to get sober since 1991 ... It became really big news much later than that, but I was trying to stop. I’ve had a problem for a long time. I had periods, long periods, of sobriety and I would end up relapsing," he said.

"I still go to meetings and work my steps, but I had reached a place in my life where I knew I had to stop," he continued. "I couldn’t be arrogant anymore. If I wanted to reach a nice and pleasant old age, I had to stop. And if I wanted to watch my kids grow up, I needed to reach a place where I knew it was over."

The Company of Heroes actor was also briefly married to Maeve Quinlan from 1996 to 1999. While Sizemore never remarried, he welcomed twin sons Jagger and Jayden, now 17, with Janelle McIntire in 2005.

This article contains information that many people will find upsetting. 

Sinead O’Connor has been taken to hospital by police after tweeting distressing messages after losing her son Shane, who was found dead just a few days ago.

The grieving 55-year-old singer reassured followers that she had been picked up by authorities and taken to hospital an hour after posting the concerning tweets, in which she suggested she was planning to take her own life.

O'Connor's 17-year-old son Shane was on suicide watch at an Irish hospital when he went missing last week. A day later on January 7, the teenager's body was found.

The 'Nothing Compares 2 U' singer has been understandably heartbroken by the loss. But fans were particularly alarmed when she began to talk about following her son in a series of tweets yesterday afternoon, some of which have been deleted.

Per the New York Post, she wrote in the first tweet: "God made me wrong. So I’m sending myself back and I’m finding the [only] person on this earth who ever truly loved me."

In subsequent tweets, she spoke of the blame she was placing on herself for Shane's death, and that she didn't want to be in a world without her son.

In her final tweet, the grieving mother continued to blame herself for her son's tragic death, and that she had decided to "follow" her son.

Fans were unsurprisingly alarmed by the tweets. But an hour later, O'Connor reassured then that she was on her way to the hospital.

"I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said that. I am with cops now on way to hospital," she tweeted. "I’m sorry I upset everyone. I am lost without my kid and I hate myself. Hospital will help a while."

She added: "I’m sorry for what I tweeted yesterday. I’m very upset. My son was the love of my life. [...] I am ruined without my son. I am sorry I’ve upset anyone. I’m a t**t."

As you can imagine, the singer's tweets were flooded with supportive messages from fans and others who have felt similar grief.

The Irish singer - who changed her name to Shuhada Davitt in 2018 - has been married four times and has three other children. She shared custody of Shane with Irish folk singer Donald Lunny.
