Of Mice & Men singer Austin Carlile was recently hospitalized, forcing the band to cut short a few live dates. Carlile, who has had problems with his health in the past (he previously underwent surgery for an enlarged aorta valve in 2010,) has checked in with the following update on his condition via Twitter:
“Thank you for the get well wishes everyone. I’m transferring to Stanford University this week to be in care of my cardiologists & marfans specialists until my health situation at hand is under control. It has been a long past few days, and the ones following will be just as much of a struggle but I can do this. And I believe that whole heartedly.. If I believe in it. So should you. I’m sorry to anyone who missed the last two shows of our tour. I would have much rather been there than a hospital bed, I assure you. Love to everyone, band, family, you. I’m never giving up. Thanks for being there for me. Waking up over & over in the middle of the night, or the nurses helping me pee, reading the tweets help. <3”
