Tom Sizemore: A talented actor who left us too soon
Tom Sizemore dies aged 61
Tom Sizemore, the renowned actor best known for his role in Saving Private Ryan, has died at the age of 61. Sizemore rose to fame in the 1990s by routinely playing tough guys in supporting roles. He suffered a brain aneurysm on February 18, according to Charles Lago, his spokesman.
“He is in the medical center. His family is aware of the situation and hopes for a successful resolution. According to Lago, it is too early to predict his recovery as he is being monitored and is in a serious condition.
Sizemore passed out at his Los Angeles residence and was taken to the hospital immediately afterward. The family was told by doctors that “there is no further hope”, prompting them to make end-of-life decisions. The family decided to remove him from life support on March 3.
I think he’s in the hospital. His family is aware of the predicament and is praying that it will be resolved. He is being monitored and is in serious condition, so it is too early to assess his prognosis, according to Lago.
Sizemore lost consciousness at his home in Los Angeles and was immediately taken to the hospital. When doctors informed the family that “there was no further hope,” they were forced to make end-of-life decisions. On March 3, his family decided to turn off his life support.
A thriving career and personal challenges
Sizemore’s filmography also includes roles in “Pearl Harbour” with Ben Affleck, “Born on the Fourth of July” with Tom Cruise, and “Twin Peaks”. He has been involved in the writing and production of many productions.
Sizemore has had legal problems throughout his life, including a 2003 conviction for domestic violence against his then-girlfriend Heidi Fleiss and a six-month prison sentence in 2005 for attempting to forge a urine test. However, he was candid about his challenges, especially trying to stay sober.
“I’ve been trying to quit drinking since 1991. Even though I was trying to quit, it started getting quite significant headlines much later. I had a problem for a while. After long periods of sobriety, I finally succumbed,” Tom admitted in the past.
In 2010, Sizemore participated in the third season of the reality television program Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew.
