Poor Natasha Richardson. 
Quote:
As Natasha Richardson remains in a New York hospital, her family and friends have all but given up hope that she'll recover from a severe head injury.
"There is no chance," a family friend told PEOPLE on Tuesday night. "It is a fact that her heart is beating but she is brain dead."
Her dire condition – doctors described it to those close to Richardson as "leakage of blood between the brain and skull," the friend says – has the actress's family coming to grips with potentially having to make an unthinkably difficult decision. "It's not official yet," says the friend, "but they basically will detach her."
Richardson, 45, the daughter of actress Vanessa Redgrave, suffered a devastating head injury Monday while skiing on a beginner's slope outside Montreal during a trip with at least one of her two sons. Her husband, Liam Neeson, 56, raced from a Toronto movie set to be with her as she was hospitalized.

TMZ and Eonline.com both said that her family made a decision to take her off life support about 7 hours ago. I was really hoping she'd pull through.
ETA: Natasha Richardson has died.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Natasha Richardson.
I loved her and enjoyed watching her movies. She was a classy lady and a great actress.

It's so weird how my heart hurts for someone I've never met. I feel for her husband, children and family.
