MUMBAI: Some wounds heal and some last forever. For the first time since his brain hemorrhage in April 2010, rocker and reality star Bret Michaels will appear via satellite on the Oprah Winfrey show on BIG CBS LOVE to share about his injury, the lessons he learned, and the recovery process ahead of him.
For decades, Bret Michaels has been the hard-partying front man of Poison, a glam metal band that’s sold more than 25 million records. Bret’s wild ways earned him a bad-boy reputation, which paved the way for reality TV stardom. On the night of April 21, 2010, Bret says he felt something explode in his head. Doctors discovered Bret had suffered a brain hemorrhage, a serious condition that’s often fatal, and they prepared his family for the worst.
But Bret, a survivor in every sense of the word, lived to share his story. In his first television interview, Bret looks back at that terrifying night and looks forward to a full recovery.
