80’s Music Ping!!
Prayers for Bret. Has the Donald Fired him yet?
Hang in there Bret!!!!!
His Wiki is already reporting him as dead.
Pop culture moron and proud of it
He was in a hair band 20 years ago
Anyone can go on Wikipedia and post anything they want about anyone
Prayers for a sweet guy.
Given the nature of his brain hemorrhage, I would not hold much hope.
“According to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, people who don’t receive proper medical treatment after suffering a subarachnoid hemorrhage have a 20% to 30% chance of experiencing a second bleed within the first month — and the odds of surviving a second bleed are extremely slim.
Cedars states, “Recurrent bleeding has a 70% mortality rate.”
Fortunately, Michaels is reportedly being treated in a capable medical center.
However, it appears as though Michaels is already beating the odds — Cedars reports that roughly 1/3 of people who have a subarachnoid hemorrhage die during the hemorrhage because of extensive brain damage. Obviously, Michaels has already cleared that hurdle.
As for Michaels’ treatment, Cedars warns, “Because of the ominous prognosis with delayed definitive therapy, referral to a center of excellence with experience in treating subarachnoid hemorrhage is imperative.”
Thanks, pretty much any music, in my book, past the late 1970's sucks so I would not know him, especially a hair band
I'm also a proud member of the ignorant masses who despise pop culture so whatever he is famous for today would be meaningless to me.
Oh I know it does not look good. My cousin’s first wife’s sister, she had a brain aneurysm at the age of 32, died a day later..left behind a 4 year old daughter..it can happen at any age unfortunately and the symptoms don’t appear til its too late
He was not one of the wild ones from back in the 80’s. Being diabetic, he actually did not succumb to the drinking and drug binges so common to the 80’s metal scene.
Prayers
prayers up!!!
“a hair band 20 years “
Poison
Please, no, I hope that’s not true. I am praying for him and his family. Bret seemes like such a caring person. He seems so kind.
“Rock Band Poison (famous song ‘Every Rose Has It’s Thorn’)”
“Talk Dirty To Me” was probably better known.
