DON’T WORRY BRET MICHAELS, IT HAPPENS TO THE BEST OF US

I’ve watched all three seasons of Rock of Love. I’ve laughed, I’ve cried, I’ve listened to Poison when I’ve wanted nothin’ but a gooood time. How can I resist? Well, it looks like Mr. Michaels and I might have something in common besides our luscious blonde hair…

According to BW&BK, last night at his show at Sea World (uh, yeah. Sea World) in San Antonio, Tejas, Bret was complaining of some stomach pains that he thought were symptoms of a flu. After being forced to go to the hospital, however, it was discovered that he actually had acute appendicitis and was rushed into emergency surgery. It’s reported that he’s in recovery now and doing just fine.

I feel ya, Bret. Except I wasn’t as lucky. Two years ago, I too said goodbye to my appendix. But, sucks for me, by the time someone figured out what was wrong, my appendix had BURST and subsequently I was in and out of the hospital for two months until I finally had it taken out. Nothing say “SpRiNg BrEaK!!*!*!” quite like an apendectomy and some pains pills.

So listen, kids, we can’t all be as cool as Bret Michaels. If you start feeling an intense stabbing pain in your tummy that keeps just getting worse, just suck it up and go to the hopsital. A ruptured appendix may be brutal, but it sure ain’t pretty.
