George Michael, Innit Peeps

Recommended Posts

Am I crazy, blind or possibly both, but does anybody else think that Georgie Boy in his younger days bore a resemblance to snooker star Stephen Hendry?

 

Did you ever see both of them at the same time and in the same room?

No, funnily enough I don't reckon that snooker is GM's thing - wrestling would be more to his taste, I'd imagine.. :(

He's fine on the brown, not so good on the pink...

He's being moved to an open prison - looks like his time inside will be 'Club Tropicana' compared to what most cons have to endure.

When they refer to Prisoner George Michael and an open prison, it makes me wonder if they're using the term in the same way as an 'open marriage.'

For some reason the term pin cushion comes to mind.

Prisoners have it too good nowadays; the fact that Georgie is into the whole open relationship deal, was obviously taken into account by the judge. That Human Rights Act has a lot to answer for! :unsure:

Georgie denies that he's been receiving 'special treatment' while inside.

No problem - although I'm wondering if all this stress and worry has made him come out in hiv-es.

George Michael is being kept on a special hospital bed which has "probably saved his life" in his battle against pneumonia.

 

The Careless Whisper singer is being cared for on the £100,000 bed designed for critically-ill lung patients, in the intensive care room of the AKH Hospital in Vienna, Austria.

 

Dr Carol Cooper told The Sun newspaper: "The bed has probably saved his life so far. But he is far from out of the woods yet."

Fans and family are worried as it was claimed last night the star has developed Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome - a lung condition often caused by pneumonia, which stops oxygen getting into the blood, and ispotentially-fatal.

 

George is strapped into the Triadyne Proventa 'kinetic therapy' bed, designed for people in acute respiratory distress who cannot move, and it constantly tilts from side to side up to 40 degrees, to relieve pressure on his lungs.

 

Dr Cooper added: "These beds are lifesavers and exceptionally expensive, even to use.

 

"With the lungs not functioning well, the heart has to pump harder to shift the blood around the body, which would make it harder to survive. This bed tries to get the lungs functioning as best they can.

 

"The movement helps shift secretions inside the lung to make sure they don't collect and make you worse. But if he is still being cared for like this, he is very seriously ill.

 

"He is in a critical condition, which means he could die. We still don't know why pneumonia affects some people more than others. But if you are middle-aged, and maybe with other problems such as with your immune system, your outlook is not so good."

 

Survivors of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome may suffer memory loss or other mental issues during their recovery because of the lack of oxygen to the brain. It can also be accompanied other organ failure, such as the kidney or liver.

 

He is thought to be under the surveillance of a kidney specialist and on a special breathing machine.

 

His rumoured boyfriend, Fadi Fawaz, 38, said yesterday: "George is doing well and is in good spirits - getting stronger all the

time."

 

The singer was rushed to hospital last week and on Friday cancelled the rest of his current Symphonica Tour.

Reports About George Michael Condition Vary Greatly In The Press

 

by Music-News.com on November 30, 2011

Reports on the health of George Michael from Britain are all over the place as to his current condition and prognosis.

 

 

Spokespeople for the singer are keeping their “getting better every day” status; however, a number of other British newspapers are making other reports.

 

The Telegraph is reporting that Michael is responding to treatment and “slowly improving” adding that he has been joined at the Vienna hospital by his father, two sisters and current boyfriend Fadi Fawaz. They also say that his last partner, Kenny Goss, is expected to arrive soon.

 

The Sun says that Michael is being treated in a $150,000 bed that is used for critically ill lung patients. The Triadyne Proventa kinetic therapy bed was necessitated by what is said to be a secondary situation that is making it difficult for oxygen to get into the blood. Dr. Carol Cooper, consultant for the Sun explained:

 

The bed has probably saved his life so far. But he is far from out of the woods yet. These beds are lifesavers and exceptionally expensive, even to use.

 

With the lungs not functioning well, the heart has to pump harder to shift the blood around the body, which would make it harder to survive. This bed tries to get the lungs functioning as best they can.

 

The movement helps shift secretions inside the lung to make sure they don’t collect and make you worse. But if he is still being cared for like this, he is very seriously ill.

 

He is in a critical condition, which means he could die. We still don’t know why pneumonia affects some people more than others. But if you are middle-aged, and maybe with other problems such as with your immune system, your outlook is not so good.

Today, it is being reported by the Mirror and the Sun that Michael is now on a ventilator with the possibility of long term vocal damage being the result. Dr. Gerrit Wohlt, Michael’s ear, nose and throat specialist, said “In the worst case scenario, being on a ­ventilator could harm his vocal cords. He could end up with a hoarse voice, so a new year comeback is unlikely. He will needs months of rest.”

 

As far as long-term damage, Wohlt said “It depends how long he spends on the ventilator, but in the worst case his illness could seriously affect his singing capacity. :champagne: The pressure is very close to his vocal cords and it could affect them.”

the main thing is that he is clearly going to survive,so there's not much point in any further discussion of him on this forum!
