Madonna’s family ‘prepared for worst’ after singer rushed to ICU
Madonna has shared a positive update thanking her loved ones for their support, a month on from her terrifying hospital dash.
The 64-year-old star declared she was feeling “lucky to be alive” after being rushed to hospital after contracting a potentially deadly bacterial infection.
But a month on, with her world tour postponed so she has time to recover, the 4 Minutes hitmaker is now getting back on her feet – and says her loved ones are to thank.
In particular, she took a moment to praise her children, who rushed to be by her side after hearing the news of her time in the ICU.
Posting three photographs on Instagram, the icon can be seen cuddled up to her 17-year-old adopted son, David Banda, in one, and posing with her daughter Lourdes Leon, 26, in another.

“As a Mother you can really get caught up In the needs Of your children and the seemingly endless giving……….. But when the chips were down my children really showed up for me. I saw a side to them I had never seen before.
“It made all the difference. So did the love and support from my friends.”
