Bret Michaels/Poison

I saw this when I pulled up comcast.net for my email. How horrible. He's had a lot of problems this past month and I hope he gets thru this. Thoughts are with him.

Wow - he sure has Willie. So sad - I wish Bret my very best for a full recovery.

How strange we were just discussing Bret e and this happens. I'm scared for him. I hope he pulls through this.

My prayers continue to be with Bret. I pray that he makes a full recovery. I am going to look for an update now.

Wonder if this has anything to do with the head trauma he suffered a few months ago at the Tony Awards.

Not sure if it makes a person more susceptible to a hemorrhage. I think he got hit in the forehead that time and this bleeding is around the brainstem in the back of the skull. But, when you have head trauma it jolts the brain inside the skull (like shaken baby syndrome).

Long term diabetes can also affect blood vessels.

Anyway, hope he continues to recover.

Wow Molly, I had forgotten about that!! Good point! I wonder also.

How awful! My prayers are with Bret. They just played "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" on the radio and I think I would be more upset if he went than when Michael Jackson went - he was so weird I expected him to go early anyway, but I just watched three seasons of Bret on Rock of Love and he seems like such a fun, friendly, "with it" guy (even if a bit oversexed). Sure hope he's OK - that he not only pulls through, but pulls through without suffering a lot of permanent damage.

Molly - I heard he was on blood thinners due to his appendectomy - could that have an effect?

Here's the latest on his condition. I also read that he is conscious and talking some, so that's good news. I sure hope he recovers without side effects.

Even though he's been such a bad boy, he does seem really nice and fun to be around.

My prayers continue to be with Bret and his family. That's really good news that he's been conscious and talking.
