The last words of actress Debbie Reynolds before she died on Dec. 28 apparently referred to her daughter, “Star Wars” actress Carrie Fisher, who died one day earlier.

Reynolds was rushed to a hospital after she reportedly suffered a stroke on Wednesday. She told her son, Todd Fisher, hours before the stroke: “I miss her so much, I want to be with Carrie,” TMZ first reported. Todd also told Variety something similar: “She wanted to be with Carrie.”

“It happened very gently,” Carrie’s bother, Todd Fisher, told ABC News. “She loved taking care of my sister more than anything. So, she gets to do that and that’s what she wanted to do.”

He said doctors told him that her stroke was so severe that she wouldn’t be able to recover.
