So what was Lindsay Lohan doing at the hospital? Though her rep initially said she was visiting a friend, her Mom finally admitted that she had a real medical emergency. “She was losing oxygen. She couldn’t breathe.” Then she complained, “She was afraid to go the hospital because [the paparazzi] were gonna write about it. If you were sick, and you’re mother couldn’t even take you to a hospital because paparazzi will fabricate some story, you know, it’s sad. It’s really sad.”
