That is really sad news--especially as he seemed to be recovering so well
earlier.

It's such a shame when he seemed to have recovered so well from his previous surgery. Our thoughts are with Russell and his family at this critical time.

STATEMENT ON RUSSELL WATSON
STATEMENT ON RUSSELL WATSON
FROM MICHAEL STROUD EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
THE ALEXANDRA HOSPTIAL
Russell Watson had a comfortable night and remains in our Intensive Therapy Unit for continuous monitoring and care.
He is recovering well from his surgery and is in a stable condition. He is talking for brief periods and has been eating small amounts of food but the priority is for him to rest. Family members are with him.
It is only 36 hours since his life was in danger, so it is important for him and those around him to take things slowly. Russell is following the advice of his medical team and he understands that his recovery plan may be a long haul.
His management team is overwhelmed by the amount of support and messages from friends and fans. While Russell will not have seen much of the enormous evidence of that caring from the public yet, he clearly feels the same.

Thank you very much for that report Terence, and the good news is that Russell has now been taken off the critical list.

Great news that Russell is being discharged home today.
What a miraculous recovery from just a few days ago. Of course, he'll need to take it easy for quite some time. We wish him all the best.
Marian and Peter.

I was astounded to read that Russell was being allowed home---an amazing recovery from him--although he obviously still has a long way to go, everything seems to be looking positive at the moment.

Russell is out of hospital and back home, but his recovery will take quite a long time and he will need to rest.
Received our news leaflet today. His new album RUSSELL WATSON - OUTSIDE IN is due out on the 26th of November.
It features, classical favourites, La Califfa and a brand new recording of Nessun Dorma for 2007 in honour of Luciano Pavarotti.
