Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband has to make a decision today that could determine whether Zsa Zsa lives or dies.
Prince Frederic von Anhalt tells TMZ ... he has to decide whether to allow doctors to operate on his wife's leg -- which was badly infected because of a blood clot.
The docs have said putting the 93-year-old Zsa Zsa under anesthesia and operating is "very risky" ... the doctors say there's less than a 50% chance she'd survive the procedure.
The Prince says the other option is continuing the antibiotics for the next 3 months. The problem there -- the medication could destroy her kidneys.
Von Anhalt says he hasn't decided what to do, but he feels the pressure because a decision must be made by tomorrow AM.

How can 3 months of antibiotics degrade her kidneys? Seriously. I could see 3 months of steroids (which are destructive with long term use to kidneys) .. .but antibiotics? *scratches head*
Either way-- saying a few prayers for Ms. Zsa Zsa Gabor. She is a remarkable woman, and a treasure of my childhood (Green Acres).
At that point I would hope my loved one would just pull the plug. No one should live like that. She lived a long and great life. My prayers go out to her and her family.
Operating on a 93-year-old person sounds crazy. Not a hard choice.
Von A Hole has been forgetting his Botox, with all of the Chaos!
Big BIg decision.. Poor thing wont make it through the surgery longer than 2 weeks.
Is she in a coma or mentally incompetent? Why can't she make her own decision about her own life? Don't even say "She's 93!!" My husband's grandmother was 98 when she passed and she could put all of us to shame with her mental capacity!
Either way she doesn't have much time. My Dad went with the amputation: had the surgery in December, passed away in January. Hard decision, I wish both of them the best.
Ask Her ONLY Child Von A Hole... Let the Daughter make the decision.
Eva Gabor was in Green Acres. Eva was her sister that passed away in 1995.
Yes, it was Eva for Green Acres. This has got to be one of the hardest decisions to ever make. I will keep her in my prayers.
what a heartwrenching decision
either way doesnt seem she'll make it long
get the casket prepared prince
No sense of her being in pain, I'd say operate and if she pulls thru good but if she passes from it then at least she won't be in pain anymore.
That's a terrible position to be in, and as crazy as he is, I think he really loves her. I feel bad for him.
Too bad the situation wasn't reversed. Not that Zsa Zsa didn't have her own issues, but I'd rather have her around than the "Prince".
