George Michael Talks About Nearly Dying: “Worst Month Of My Life”

George Michael has been released from the hospital after nearly dying from a bad battle of pneumonia. he gave a press conference where he looked very skinny and was very emotional.

George states that they played down the illness and that is surprising because it was being reported he was close to death. So close to death, that a doctor had to speak on his behalf and say that he is improving, which we reported on weeks ago.

"I have to believe that somebody thinks I have some work to still do here" George said. George wants to make up the tour dates he had to cancel and do a special show for the employees at the Austrian hospital that saved his life.

Since the illness, George had no contact with anyone who was not a family or loved one. The avid tweeter has not even sent a tweet since before his illness, November 17th.

I am very glad that George is still alive. That must have been some bug. I hope he gets well soon....and gets some meat on those bones of his as well.

Diagnosis: Thankful this is not his "Last Christmas..."
