UPDATE: TMZ spoke with Gabor's husband, Prince von Anhelt, who said doctors recommended that Gabor have the surgery done before the holidays. Gabor declined, wishing to spend perhaps her last holiday with her family, but doctors insisted today that ignoring the problem further would cost the actress her life.
Gabor was diagnosed with blood clots in her leg in November.
