Two days ago, beloved actress Carrie Fisher, who plays Princess Leia in ‘Star Wars’, suffered a severe heart attack while en route from London to Los Angeles. The latest on her condition, according to her brother Todd Fisher, is that while she is stable and out of emergency, she is still in intensive care in a Los Angeles hospital.
And while we’ve all been praying that the Force stays with her, there is one little guy who is more anxious than most for Fisher’s recovery: Gary.

Gary is Fisher’s beloved French Bulldog, and on all accounts, her bestie. The pair famously appeared together through all her interviews in 2015 to promote ‘The Force Awakens’, and Gary has his own Twitter and Instagram accounts.

Gary’s heart-wrenching Christmas Eve tweet has sent fans all over the world into a too-many-feels spiral.

When asked in an interview about Gary, Fisher said:
My mother says Gary is a hooligan. Gary is like my heart. Gary is very devoted to me and that calms me down.
