(Gibson) A source close to Robin Gibb says the Bee Gee's odds of "coming through" his current health problems are 50/50. Jim Dooly, a friend of Gibb, told London's The Telegraph, "It's 50/50 whether he comes through this, but [his wife] Dwina is a wonderful woman and she is giving him all the love and TLC you can give. He is receiving prayers and blessings from every religion all over the world and I'm told there is a special blessing on the way from the Pope."
Gibb, 62, fell into a coma last month after developing pneumonia as he battles colon cancer. Doctors fear the cancer may have spread to his liver. He remains in intensive care at a central London hospital. "Dwina has said that because he spent so long in a coma there are a lot of things he will have to learn to do again, if he comes through it," Dooly said. "He will have to re-learn how to walk. The plan is to get his strength up so he can resume chemotherapy treatment for his cancer." more on this story
