Dr. Zabramski states "There is no doubt that the positive Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) is devastating news to Bret and his family. The good news is that it is operable and treatable and we think we may have diagnosed the problem that caused the Transient Ischemic Attach (TIA) or warning stroke; however we feel it is highly unlikely this is connected to the brain hemorrhage he suffered just a few weeks earlier. Once again it is great that he quickly reacted to the severe numbness and got to the hospital immediately."
I have a hard time believing the two incidents aren't related.
I wonder if this heart condition caused his brain hemorrhage two weeks ago---and the doctor's missed that this heart defect was the CAUSE of the brain hemorrhage.
I just read some information on Patent Foreman Ovale (PFO), and it can cause subarachnoid hemorrhage like Bret had a few weeks ago.
BRET MICHAELS, BACK IN HOSPITAL AFTER SUFFERING WARNING STROKE KNOWN AS A TRANSIENT ISCHEMIC ATTACK (TIA) -Bret Michaels was readmitted to the hospital this week after suffering numbness on the left side of his body, predominately his face and hands which doctors described as a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) or warning stroke. While MRI and CT scan tests were being conducted, Michaels also received a Doppler Ultrasound of his legs and lower abdomen looking for blood clots and most importantly an Ultrasound Bubble Test of his heart was conducted which proved positive for a Patent Forum Ovale (PFO), a hole in the heart. Dr. Zabramski (Bret’s neurosurgeon), Dr. Becker (who ordered the test), Dr. Cook (who conducted the test) and Dr. Frey (Director, Outpatient Stroke Program) all confirmed the results.

Wow you guys have all the info!! I'm really upset about the Hollyrod foundation. I care for a 10yr old boy who is autistic, non verbal, there are so many budget cuts state wide and nation wide, I suppose, I'm surprised there is any help at all. Then to hear about their contributions, WoW, makes me sick!! I hope Trump comes down hard on her charity!!
Sharon??? Just no words with all the acting, crying...talk about a big girl panty party!! I didn't buy one word of her, I can't take it from Holly because of her child!!
She left like a pissed off human being. I applaud her for being herself.
Yes.
I confess that I do not follow modern music, so I am probably one of the few people who did not know who Cyndi was.
I grew to like and respect her because she does not seem phoney like the others and everything she did/touched went well, so she knows what she is doing.
She's a good person and probably the only one on this presentation of the App. that I wouldn't mind knowing better. I respect her. Her voice is also versatile. It was refreshing to see her honesty against the backdrop of so many pretenders.
wonder if Bret will be able to attend the Live Finale Sunday nite???
Just last night I was finally able to catch last week's show.
Unless the show is just edited to make it seem so-there is no way Bret can beat Holly. She has it going on and Bret is too all over the place.
Of course we know how editing is on these shows.......
This morning I saw a scroll on the news, stating that Bret had the hole in his heart patched and he has been released from the hospital
