Bret Michaels Hospital: Conscious and stable

Bret Michaels after being hospitalized on Thursday night after complaining about intense headache was found by the doctors that Michaels was bleeding from brain stem, also known as subarachnoid haemorrhage. But the good news is, he is conscious and stable but he is under supervision for the 24 to 48 hours.

According to Ambre Lake who told to the TMZ that the 80s rocker and now a reality show star is able to talk and has responded to the medicines. The doctors are hopeful that the rocker will be making a fast recovery.

Earlier this month Bret was hospitalised because he suffered excruciating pain in his stomach which was alter diagnosed to be appendix, hence emergency appendectomy was performed. He was making a good recovery, though it was hindered because of his diabetic conditions. Due to his emergency appendix operation his tours got postponed. Though, now nothing has been said or commented on when the shows will take place. One can expect that it might get postponed or cancelled because of his brain haemorrhage.

However, a lot of these good reports are on blogs...surely groupies have blogs?...and hopefully there will be positive updates on mainstream sources soon.

UPDATE (4/25): Bret Michaels’ official website posted a new message on Sunday: “Everyone at Michaels Entertainment would like to thank all fans and friends for their continued thoughts and prayers through this difficult time.

At this point Bret remains in ICU in critical condition. He is under 24 hour doctors’ care and supervision. We are hopeful that further tests will locate the source of the bleeding, which has still not been located. As we all know Bret is a fighter and we are hopeful that once all is complete the slurred speech, blurred vision and dizziness, etc. will be eliminated and all functions will return to normal.

More information will be posted as it becomes available.”

I really like him too. I pray he survives this and the after effects aren't too severe. What a shame.

According to this morning's news, he's conscious but his speech is slurred and they said something about vision problems. Even though I don't like his music, My prayers go out for him!

Donald Trump, who, it is reported, has been in contact with someone at the hospital, says Bret Michaels is in "big, big trouble and the prognosis is not great."

A sub arach hemorrhage is a leak in the blood vessels in brain.

It's a leak in the network of vessels that look like a spiderweb-hence the name-arachnoid.

Because the vessels are so small and wide spread, docs can get a general idea of where the hemorrhage is located, but they have to pinpoint the exact area of the rupture before they can open up the skull to repair it.

Not a good thing.

When my Mom had her strokes, her doctors said the first 72 hours are the most critical. I just watched Donald Trump's video about Bret, I had no idea that he fell and hit his head. My prayers are being prayed for Bret and his family.
