In 2013, Mike almost died after suffering an abdominal aortic aneurysm. He recovered, and took to the stage again. Then, in 2015, Mike went into hospital to have blood clots removed from his lungs and to combat colitis. While he was there, he suffered a second aneurysm. Mike remained in hospital for ten weeks. At times, his family and doctors were not sure he would pull full. But, eventually, he was stable enough to come home.
But that was only the start of Mike’s recovery. In essence, he had to learn to speak and walk again. He also took the time to learn a new skill – playing lead guitar. Now, back on his feet, Mike is back to his love of original country music and intends to be back in the studio in the next few months.
