I didn’t think things could get much worse for Brooke Mueller, the possibly estranged wife of Charlie Sheen. But I was wrong. The mom of twin boys Bob and Max was hospitalized due to a high fever caused by an infection after some dental surgery she had earlier this week. And get this: Charlie was working to have the restraining order lifted so he could visit Brooke in the hospital.
TMZ has learned Brooke Mueller, Charlie Sheen’s wife, is going to be ok and she still plans to make the trip to Aspen for the hearing on Friday.
Mueller’s lawyer, Yale Galanter, tells TMZ the infection that put her in the hospital today is under control — an infection she got as a result of oral surgery earlier in the week.
Galanter says Brooke — who was admitted to the ICU with a fever of 105 — was pumped full of antibiotics and she should be released today.
Galanter says the goal is for Brooke to make it to the hearing on Friday — a hearing to modify the protective order that prohibits Charlie from having any contact with Brooke. Galanter says he’s not sure if Brooke will be in any condition to travel and it’s possible he’ll ask the judge to allow her to testify by telephone.
We’re also told a motion should be filed shortly in Aspen to allow Charlie to have contact with Brooke, while she’s in the hospital.
Charlie went to the hospital a short time ago .. under the protective order he’s allowed to be in the same room with wife Brooke Mueller, but technically he can’t communicate with her.
I’m having a hard time buying Charlie as the concerned husband here, considering he’s most likely the person responsible for leaking all kinds of vicious rumors about Brooke, including that she is a raging alcoholic and crack addict who used while pregnant. But then again, I’m having an even harder time understanding why a woman would stay in a relationship with a man who held a knife to her throat and threatened to kill her. Yeah, I know there aren’t any photos to back it up, but I do not doubt for one second that Sheen did that – and worse. Get better, Brooke. And think twice about removing that protective order.

i don’t know. she is seems a bit off. not in the omg it’s a crazy psychotic b*tch like Denise, but still. a quieter version.
But i wish i could have been a fly on the wall in that house on christmas.
@Obvious–Damn straight! Charlie Sheen + Crazy Wife = Divorce
Oh, man, Uma smokes. yuck.
Sad drama. Too bad for the kids. 🙁
With the track record this guy holds, I am shocked that so many women line up take him on. There are no surprises with this man. If you marry him, you will have to contend with this sort of behavior. I think that’s common knowledge among those who have an ounce of common sense, and therefore I have no pity for his women.
Get over the anti-smoking thing, please, Linda. When it’s illegal, you can judge.
Smokers and fat people, the two last safe public prejudices.
I don’t think it’s fair to call Denise a “crazy, psychotic bitch.” I do think it’s fair, however, to call Sheen a “crazy, psychotic bitch.” Like Marlo Thomas once famously said, a woman is a bitch if she puts you on hold on the telephone. Apparently, a man who holds a knife to his wife’s throat (as reported by the arresting officer) deserves to have a TV show as well as the continual benefit of the doubt.
I believe she’s in the hospital but not for a tooth infection. People call their dentist and get treatment way before the situation escalates to a 105 degree temperature. What a bunch of bull.
Something else is going on here and I think it has to do with the possibility of them losing custody of the children due to their continuing substance abuse and Charlie’s physical violence toward women.
Thank you J.Ferber! The only one we should be calling names and worrying about is MR. Sheen!! Shame on you folks who blame his victims!
@ boo: Yeah, I smelled the whiff of BS myself on this one also. She may be in the hospital, but I doubt it’s for a tooth infection, either. MSat is right, Brooke should definitely think twice before removing that protective order. But people will do what they’re going to do.
He probably wants to go to the hospital to finish her off.
This always make me wonder about people like this. Like when someone a person can’t stand is injured or in the hospital or dies, that’s when they want to be nice to them. Why then all of a sudden? Why not have this epiphany beforehand?
Does anyone really have any proof that he committed these ‘alleged’ crimes – why does everyone always side with the women in these things – don’t some women lie, cheat and do crazy things and wrongfully accuse?!? Let’s wait for some evidence please!
