Michele Sychak wants Bret Michaels to take a break

Share

Michele Sychak who is Bret Michaels sister tells radaronline that she wants her brother to take a break for a while after suffering from brain hemmorhage.

Here is the aricle:


It all goes down to the point that we want him to take a break but that’s not in his character, he goes and goes and goes and that’s the joy of his life," Sychak said. She adds that the May 26 date is a hopeful estimate and her brother's doctors have yet to give their official greenlight. For now, they are taking things week by week and focus on other aspects of Michaels' life.


"I think anybody that has to face the reality of losing their life has to face that decision. One of the biggest concerns was his kids. You're not worried about the next concert date, you're worried if your gonna see your daughters again," she added.

"He is just now starting to go through the physical therapy part of it. He works out every single day and for the last three weeks he has been just laying in bed. There’s a lot of atrophy so just getting himself back is going to be a challenge."


The 47-year old former frontman for Poison has been in the hospital recovering from a brain hemorrhage. While Sychak wishes her brother would take a year off to "chill," she knows that is not a realistic plan.


"We all push ourselves too much and that’s human nature. I’ve asked him and said, 'Don’t you think its time to take a break?' His mind set is I'll take a break when I can’t do this anymore.’"


Thanks to things like his appearance on Celebrity Apprentice, Michaels is enjoying a resurgence in his career that he does not want to see go to waste.

"His career is once again skyrocketing, he has some things he wants to do and then I think he’ll take a break," Sychak added. "He is very driven & motivated and it’s what some may call a workaholic. He’s wanted to do this since he was thirteen years old."

Sychak also fired back at allegations that Michaels' team is pressuring him return to touring: "Bret is very much in control of Bret."

If you guys have not known by now. Bret Michaels is expected to make a full recovery and was recently released from the hospital. He did his post interview since his brain hemmorhage with People magazine. He also spoke with jam.canore.ca about a possible marriage with his long time girlfriend Kristi Gibson who he dated from 1994-2005.


article below

ocker Bret Michaels is contemplating marriage to his longtime girlfriend after surviving a near-fatal brain haemorrhage last month.

The Poison frontman, 47, spent days in the intensive care unit at St. Joseph's Hospital in Phoenix, Arizona after suffering bleeding on the brain, just days after enduring complications following an appendectomy.

He was diagnosed with the life-threatening side-effect of a condition called hyponatremia - a lack of sodium in the body that can lead to seizures.

Michaels is now making good progress in his recovery and has since been discharged from hospital. He admits his recent health scares have prompted him to rethink his priorities in life - and family is first and foremost.

He tells People magazine, "As painful as this experience has been, I was given a second chance, right? I don't want to sit around every night worrying this is going to happen again. What I want to do is make a positive bucket list and say, 'I'm just gonna go for it.'

"There's just so much more I want to do and experience. (Getting married), for sure, is something I have never done. Kristi's such a great person. We'll see if that happens. But yes, that may be one of the big things on the list.


"My first goal is to get back (to) 100 per cent. I want to continue to rock the world, and I want to continue to love my family and be a good father."

Michaels initially dated Kristi Gibson from 1994 to 2005, but they reunited after he failed to find lasting love on VH1 reality TV show Rock of Love with Bret Michaels.

The couple shares two children together, daughters Raine, nine, and Jorja, five.

Bret Michael's health turns for the worse

Bret Michaels's health has taken a turn for the worse, PEOPLE has learned: After an excruciating headache late Thursday night, the star was rushed to an undisclosed hospital where doctors discovered he suffered a massive subarachnoid hemorrhage (bleeding at the base of his brain stem), according to a source close to the situation. 

Michaels, 47, is currently in critical condition. "After several CAT scans, MRIs and an angiogram, [doctors] decided to keep Michaels in the ICU and are running several tests to determine the cause. [It] will be touch and go for the next few days while he is under intense observation," the source says.

The rocker's latest hospital visit follows hisemergency appendectomy in San Antonio, Texas, on April 12. There is no word yet whether this new development is related to the rocker's recent appendectomy or to his diabetes.

After his appendectomy, Michaels remained in the hospital under his doctors' care – then transferred to a rehab facilityspecializing in diabetic patients.

As he was recovering, Michaels – who was still in the running to win this season of NBC's Celebrity Apprentice – seemed to be in good spirits and updated fans on his progress.

"They told me that if I had gone on stage like I wanted to, [my appendix] likely would have ruptured and I could have died," he wrote in a note to his fans. "There is just no way around the fact that getting your appendix out HURTS. I have a pretty good threshold for pain, but this one hurts."

VH1 wants Rock Of Love 4

coloradodaily.com recently interviewed Bret Michaels about his new tell-all book which will be released in 2010, Bret spilled the beans of a possible 4th season of Rock Of Love.

read below

Bret Michaels' life is anything but boring.

The rocker still tours with his band Poison, he's re-invented his career by plunging into the world of reality TV -- and he has a new tell-all book set for 2010.

Oh yeah, he also made headlines recently for getting clocked at the Tony Awards by a piece of runaway scenery.

Michaels just rolls with the punches -- and he's laughing all the way to the bank.

"I am just naturally driven," Michaels told the Colorado Daily. "My biggest blessing has been being able to play music in a very jaded business.

"I just built my career brick by brick. I kept all the publishing, and, in the end, it didn't suck and it paid off. I wanted a long career, but it has been a roller coaster ride."

Michaels is touring this summer with his hitmaking band Poison. The glam rockers debuted in the big-haired, MTV days of the '80s and cranked out hits such as "Talk Dirty to Me" and "Every Rose Has Its Thorn."

Poison sold more than 25 million records and the band still draws fans to its arena shows. This summer, the group's touring with Def Leppard and Cheap Trick. The show hits Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre in Greenwood Village on Monday.

"We've been trying to do this tour for awhile," Michaels said. "We finally found a summer where we could all do it and it's been great. Def Leppard's a seriously good band, and it's been awesome being on the road with them and Cheap Trick."

Poison's classic tunes also are gaining new life in the Tony-nominated musical "Rock of Ages."

The show became a Broadway success, so the band was asked to perform its hit "Nothing But a Good Time" on the 2009 Tony Awards.

That's when all hell broke loose,

Michaels had just finished his number when he was knocked out by a piece of descending scenery. The musician suffered a broken nose and it was the YouTube moment seen around the world.
IF YOU GO

"During the Tonys, I got knocked out by a wall that was coming down," Michaels said "It just hit my thick skull. The next thing I knew, these flying monkeys from 'Wicked' were picking me up me and Liza Minnelli was giving me advice!"

When he's not dodging scenery, Michaels has a solid solo music career. His 2008 CD, Rock My World, featured tunes from his hit reality show "Rock of Love."

The "Rock of Love" franchise has become must-see TV on VH1, and it's the highest rated reality program in the music channel's history.

"VH1 had approached me about doing a show," Michaels said. "The show was going to be a little bit scripted and novelty-ish, so I said I'd love to be on. I wanted the show to be about the way I would date -- I'm 40 years old, but mentally I feel like I'm 20.

"We were going to start with six episodes, but once they filmed the first night, they wanted more. We had this amazingly ridiculous time on the show and the girls were crazy enough to keep coming back.

"There was a lot of footage we couldn't show on VH1."

Rock of Love" became a popular TV entity, so it morphed into "Rock of Love 2" and "Rock of Love Bus."

The reality shows flashed a spotlight on Michaels, his music and his dating habits -- and now VH1 wants more.

"'Rock of Love' became one of VH1's most popular shows -- even in the conservative states," Michaels said. "There was this big cultural trickle-down and we had fans of all ages. The show worked because I had a 20-year career, I'm self-depreciating -- and it was a ridiculously crazy dating show.

"Now they want me to come back for a fourth 'Rock of Love.' I feel that it should be something that changes up, but I still want that fun element. What you see is what you get with me."

Michaels will tell all about "Rock of Love" in his upcoming biography "Roses & Thorns."

Three publishing houses went into a bidding war over the bio, but Michaels settled on Simon & Schuster. The book will be published in 2010.

"This book is very candid and people will get the raw truth about my life," Michaels said. "I also have some great pictures -- like my prom picture with me in my parachute pants. That's worth the price of the book."
