George Michael was hospitalized in Austria over a month ago for pneumonia and today he is finally back home in The UK and breaking his silence about his hospital stay. What we didn’t know is that it was really touch and go for the singer while he battled pneumonia. You can tell he was still weak and struggling to breath at times as he talked to reporters and told them that doctors spent three weeks trying to keep him alive. He would not go into detail about how bad it was because he says that he wants to protect his family from how bad it was. He apologized for not commenting before now and said he was not up to doing so. He added with voice cracking as he said this, “I spent the last 10 days since I woke up literally thanking people for saving my life which is something I have never had to do before and never want to do again.” I think that shows how severe his illness was. The singer whose one of his biggest hits is called Faith, has found it after his hospital stay.
It seems like he is a new man who is not taking life for granted anymore which is something he hopes he does because I would love to see him live and alive!
After the reporters left, he was back on Twitter and Tweeted “I’m back and I’m proud, though not very loud…… (which, I assure you, will be temporary!) MERRY XMAS TO ALL OF YOU! ISN’T LIFE GRAND !! X”
