Stayin' Alive... Stayin' Alive... for now

Former Bee Gee Robin Gibb is in a coma after contracting pneumonia, a statement on his official website said Saturday.

Gibb's publicist, Doug Wright, declined to comment, but Gibb's son has acknowledged that the 62-year-old musician is seriously ill in a hospital.

Gibb was hospitalized last year for stomach and colon problems. He has not specified the exact nature of his illness -- widely reported to be cancer -- but told the BBC he had a growth on his colon that was removed.

"but had intestinal surgery last month and ".

Maurice Gibb, Robin's twin brother, died in 2003 at the age of 53 due to complications from a twisted intestine.
Sounds like a design defect in that specific model of Gibbs.
