LONDON, Nov. 19 (UPI) -- Actress Elizabeth Taylor has added congestive heart failure to her list of medical woes, but she says she's not afraid to die.
"I consult with God, my maker. And I don't have a lot of problems to work out. I'm pretty squared away," Taylor, 72, told Britain's Daily Mail.
The British-born Hollywood legend recently was diagnosed with heart disease that leaves her short of breath and is in constant pain from scoliosis, a spinal condition that affected her throughout her life.
"I was born with it but it has finally caught up with me. My body's a real mess. If you look at it in the mirror, it's just completely convex and concave. I've become one of those poor little women who's bent sideways. My X-rays are hysterical," Taylor said.
Taylor, who has a full-time nurse living at her Bel Air, Calif., mansion, doesn't often go out in public.
"I feel so stupid and feeble, that I can't do the work I was meant to do because of my bloody body," she said.
