Angelina Jolie's aunt, who is battling breast cancer, is in coma just two weeks after the Hollywood star revealed how her family was cursed by the disease.
Debbie Martin, 61, had encouraged Jolie's decision to have a double mastectomy, reported Daily Mirror.
Martin's husband Ronald, who has been by her hospital bed since she collapsed at home on Wednesday, said, "She had a seizure and we took her to the hospital. They have turned off the life�support and her family is all here holding her hand. She is the love of my life."
"She's in a coma. It's breast cancer but I think it has spread everywhere," said Martin's brother-in-law Rick.
Jolie underwent a double mastectomy after learning she carried the BRCA1 gene which leads to an increased risk in breast and ovarian cancer.
The 37-year-old lost her mother Marcheline Bertrand, 56, in 2007 after battling ovarian cancer.
