Bret Michaels’ has kept on rocking after a startling number of recent health incidents. But, according to People.com, he’s still got a ways to go before he’s 100 percent.
The 47-year-old Poison frontman, who has Type 1 diabetes, suffered a near-fatal brain haemorrhage in April, and a subsequent “warning” stroke. He has also underwent an emergency appendectomy and was diagnosed with a hole in his heart.
In the aftermath, he is reportedly suffering short-term memory loss, fatigue and “chemical meningitis” (inflammation caused by body scans). During a concert in Mississippi last month, Michaels was also reportedly walking with a slight limp.
“While Bret may be out on the road and performing, he is still not 100 percent,” Janna Elias, V.P. of Michaels Entertainment told People. “He still has pain from the chemical meningitis, short term memory loss and gets fatigued quicker than normal.”
Despite all this, Michaels has performed live, managed to win the title of Donald Trump’s Celebrity Apprentice, and is talking about filling Simon Cowell’s recently vacated judging seat on American Idol.
It might seem like too much too soon. But Elias says that Michaels sees music as something to believe in. He “simply feels that music is a powerful healer.”
