Madonna’s Close Call! Madonna’s Family Came Together After Fears She Wouldn’t Be Able To Make It.
It was indeed a health scare for Madonna and her family. The Queen of Pop’s relatives were already preparing for the worst.
Last Saturday, the 64-year-old Madonna was found unconscious in New York City. She was rushed to the intensive care unit and intubated. And last Wednesday, Guy Oseary, Madonna’s manager, announced that the American singer had a severe bacterial infection and that recovery would take time. He also stated the need to postpone the performer’s tour, which was set to commence on July 15 in Vancouver.
The singer’s family revealed that the past few days had been very traumatic for them and that there were plenty of uncertainties about whether she would survive.
The shocking collapse was definitely a scary wake-up call for the Grammy Award winner, who works and performs beyond her limits. Her family revealed that the singer always thought herself to be invincible and, lately, has been pushing herself in preparation for her tour.
The uncertainty surrounding Madonna’s survival was why the news of her hospitalization was shared with the public. Everyone close to the singer thought that she would pass away, as her state was quite critical.
Madonna has six children: 26-year-old Lourdes, 22-year-old Rocco, 17-year-old David and Mercy, and 10-year-old twins Estere and Stella. Throughout the ordeal, her oldest child has been by Madonna’s side.
The Material Girl hitmaker also has three sisters and four brothers, but all have kept a low profile and have spent their lives making a name for themselves and leaving the spotlight to their megastar sibling.
Despite the fear and uncertainties, her hospitalization paved the way for something beautiful—her entire family coming together and uniting for her. At the same time, it has also turned into a lesson learned for the singer, showing her it is time for her to take care of herself better.
It was disclosed that Madonna has not been living a healthy life, especially for her age, and that she has been dangerously wearing herself thin, especially during the past months, in preparation for the tour. A source revealed that the singer has been rehearsing up to six times a week, ensuring everything goes perfectly on her upcoming tour.
The same source confessed that Madonna’s perfectionism drove everyone up the wall.
Madonna’s family has decided to ban any mentions and discussions of the tour while she recuperates in the hospital because the priority is for her to recover and get much-needed rest.
One of her relatives shared, “Everything, including this tour, is taking a backseat right now, and no one is allowed even to mention anything work-related around her because she will lose her s***.”
For Madonna’s family, this incident, despite how frightening it was, was a much-needed wake-up call. Else, “She will put her career and her fame before her health until the day she is dead.”
The most recent report revealed that Madonna is already out of the ICU and is already recovering.
