The words of Michael Bolton
The singer himself explained in great detail what happened to him, with a long and touching speech communicated broadcast via social media. Here are his words:
I want to start by wishing everyone a happy and peaceful new year! I also want to share that 2023 ended up presenting me with an unexpected challenge. Right before the holidays, I found out I had a brain tumor, which required immediate surgery. Thanks to the incredible medical team who treated me, the surgery was a success. I am now recovering at home and surrounded by the immense love and support of my family. For the next two months I will dedicate my time and energy to my recovery. Which means I'll have to take a temporary break from touring. It's always the hardest thing for me to disappoint my fans or postpone a show. But I have no doubt that this difficult choice serves to speed up my recovery and my return to the stage.
In conclusion Michael wanted thank everyone those who have always been close to him and are especially close at this moment:
I am so grateful for all the love and support you have so generously shown me over the years. Please know that I hold your positive messages close to my heart. I will keep you updated as soon as possible. Always with much love, Michael.
