Doctors plan to let Zsa Zsa Gabor return home on Friday, about three weeks after the 93-year-old actress was taken to hospital with a broken hip.
Ms Gabor’s publicist, John Blanchette, said she would spend the rest of the week receiving physical therapy.
Her husband, Prince Frederic von Anhalt, told Mr Blanchette that the actress was joking with nurses but that she appeared depressed. He hoped the return home would restore her spirit.
Mr Blanchette said Ms Gabor broke her hip on July 17 after her wheelchair tipped over. The Hungarian-born actress’s condition began to deteriorate after hip-replacement surgery days later.
Mr Blanchette said Prince Frederic bought the actress a $25,000 hospital bed and was arranging for home care in anticipation of her return.
