Randy Travis Sedated - Still In Critical Condition

It has been eight days since Randy Travis was admitted to the hospital with a virus which turned into congestive heart failure which has turned into a stroke which has led him to being sedated and doctors unsure of whether the country singer will live. They are still classifying his condition as critical and his family has been surrounding his bedside for almost the entire length of his visit. Country singers and musicians have been stopping by and playing music and singing songs, but so far there has been no change.

    Listen to that voice. I like old-school country only, and man, can Randy do a ballad. Makes me cry every time.

  8. Always liked Randy Travis...I wonder if his health issues have anything to do with his substance abuse? I know he was clean for a while, but didn't he get arrested for DUI not too long ago? Wearing no pants?

    With great artistic talent comes great pain and depression, I feel bad for the guy.

  11. He had recently went through rehab and was doing better. He played a tribute to George Jones and called the song was called "Tonight I'm Playing Possum" and it was beautiful.

  12. I like Randy, but the music and singing has to irritate the crap out of the hospital staff and other patients.

    B Smears-The Ramones are to be played at my funeral. Pet Sematary of course.

  15. Later update by his doctors and fiancee. He's conscious and, guess what, his condition was not caused by drugs or booze. And he will recover, they say, with lots of physical therapy.
