A day after actress Carrie Fisher suffered a mid-air heart attack, her sister took to social media to thank people for their support.
Joely Fisher, Carrie's 49-year-old sister and a fellow actress who has appeared on "Last Man Standing," posted on Twitter a throwback photo of them with fellow sister and TV star Tricia Leigh Fisher.
"Fisher Girls...Your love and prayers are deeply felt...@TriciaLFisher @carrieffisher @Gary_TheDog," Joely wrote.
Joely, who is performing in the Laguna Playhouse's production of "Sleeping Beauty," also tweeted that she would perform a matinee of the pantomime that afternoon as scheduled, then return to Carrie's bedside.
The 60-year-old Star Wars' actress' brother and 58-year-old producer Todd said that actress was treated in the ICU following her cardiac arrest, which took place on a plane just before it landed in Los Angeles, reported E! online.
"She's obviously a very tough girl who has survived many things. I encourage everyone to pray for her," Todd said.
Carrie's mother, 84-year-old actress Debbie Reynolds, has not commented on her daughter, nor has the actress' only child and daughter, Billie Lourd.
The 24-year-old actress, who appears on "Scream Queens," was spotted entering the hospital Friday with her mother's French bulldog Gary.
