LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

An asthma attack sent Lindsay Lohan to the hospital on Thursday night, according to her mom.

“She was losing oxygen. She couldn’t breathe,” Dina Lohan told People.

Lindsay was photographed entering the facility with pal Samantha Ronson.

Dina’s quote is contrary to a statement from Lindsay’s rep, who on Friday said her client had gone to the hospital to visit a friend.

“She was afraid to go the hospital because [the paparazzi] were gonna write about it. She was sick,” Dina added. “If you were sick, and you’re mother couldn’t even take you to a hospital because paparazzi will fabricate some story, you know, it’s sad. It’s really sad.”

And while much has been made about Lindsay’s relationship (whether platonic or otherwise) with Ronson, her mother is very happy Lindsay has the deejay in her life.

“Samantha is an angel,” Dina told People.
