Pink Just Gave A Shocking Update On Her Health Status—It Was ‘Brutal’
November 24, 2021 by Maria Pierides
We feel so bad for Pink right now, as the 42-year-old singer shared an emotional social media post detailing her “brutal” recovery from the hip surgery she had to undergo. We had no idea it was that bad! In her lengthy Instagram post, which she posted on Wednesday, November 17th, the “Raise Your Glass” singer thanked the medical team who performed the surgery and took care of her, as well as her devoted husband – 46-year-old former professional freestyle motocross competitor, Carey Hart – and her children for also doing their part in her recovery.
“Hey world! This is what 9 hours of sleep and cuddles from my kiddos looks like 7 days post hip surgery!! I have to say thank you to everyone at The Steadman Clinic in Vail and Dr. Philippon for taking such good care of me,” the mom-of-two‘s IG post, which has already received over 555,000 likes, began. “Because I’m married to an athlete who has hundreds of surgeries, I get to meet some of the world’s greatest doctors. I am never not completely grateful.”
She continued: “It was a brutal first week full of tears and pain med depression, ulcers from meds and constant fevers, but my @hartluck brought me through. (No one recovers from surgery like he does, he’s not real.) he brought me coffee in the shower, lugged around my 100 pound CPM contraptions every where I went, dried my tears, cooked me oatmeal, kept track of my meds, got me my phone charger, plugged in my compression machines, took my temp, made the bed, and talked me off the ledge.” Wow, Hart is definitely a keeper! And this proves what we always suspected – that he and Pink are the epitome of couple goals!
Pink didn’t end things there, as she said that this experience taught her to count her blessings, and also mentioned some of the “incredible” people she met through her latest “challenge.” Her post continued: “Already figured out some tricks on these crutches I’m on for six weeks,,, yada yada yada…. But!!!!! Life always reminds you that most setbacks are actually just pauses and opportunities to recalibrate and count your blessings. Because of this challenge, I happened to meet a woman with cerebral palsy who summits 13,000 ft mountains in her chair, (check out her documentary called “from my window” on Vimeo, she’s incredible) I learned about a blind man that summits Mt Everest.”
