Family tragedy strikes soccer star Lampard as his mother, Pat, loses fight for life at age 58
Last updated at 10:13am on 24th April 2008
Soccer star Frank Lampard's mother died in hospital this morning. The devastated England hero was at Pat's bedside when she lost her battle against pneumonia.
Doctors were forced to put the 58-year-old on life-support yesterday after her condition suddenly started to deteriorate.
Before that, there had been hope that Mrs Lampard might get better. Chelsea star Frank, 29, yesterday said: "Slowly, slowly she is coming through."
He felt confident enough to leave the Essex hospital for Tuesday's Champions League semi-final against Liverpool – believing she was stable.
Lampard and other members of his family have been keeping a bedside vigil ever since Pat was admitted with pneumonia just over a week ago.

I don't like him but that's a shame for him and for Frank Sr.

Sad news to hear....Don't like the player but don't wish anything like this upon anyone.
RIP she was half responsible for bringing one of the greatest footballers england has ever seen, a legend... minutes silence at anfield would be appropriate IMO

Don't agree with that footballing assessment but 58 is no great age.
Expect Harry Redknapp to be a bit subdued over the next few weeks as she was Harry's wife Sandra's sister and both families are very close.

Surprised she died of pneumonia. Would have thought the medics could have saved her but there must have been complications for her to lose her life

He's still a fat pcunt though!
Footballer loses close relative shock, happens all the time. Couple of weeks back it was Andre Bikey with his mother in law, a month or so back it was Bacary Sagna who lost his brother. Chelsea should be able to deal with his loss, Ballack is a perfect made replacement.

Based on last week I think they'll be just fine without him.
