Robin Gibb’s fans are awaiting updates after a weekend report that the Bee Gees member, 62, is in a coma. The musician’s official website, Robingibb.com, confirmed the news: “Sadly the reports are true that Robin has contracted pneumonia and is in a coma. We are all hoping and praying that he will pull through. This website is currently receiving an extraordin­arily high volume of traffic and is temporaril­y unavailabl­e. Sorry for any inconvenie­nce. Please visit Robin’s Facebook page during this time.” Gibb was hospitaliz­ed last year for stomach and colon problems, and he had intestinal surgery last month.
