Jimmy Buffett is sharing a health update for his loyal fan base after he was hospitalized for an unnamed medical issue. On Friday evening, Buffett shared a statement to his social media accounts. "Thank you for the outpouring of support and well wishes," he began. "I head home tomorrow for a while, and then will go for a fishing trip with old friends, along with paddling and sailing and get myself back in good shape.
Once I am in shape, we will look at when's and where's of shows." "I think playing is as therapeutic for me as it is for fans to listen and sing along," Buffett continued. "Looking forward to announcing a new date for Charleston as well as some new shows!
Fins up!" Last week, Buffett announced that he had to cancel his show in Charleston, South Carolina. A representative for Buffett did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for additional comment.
On Thursday, Buffett, 76, shared a statement to Twitter and disclosed he was hospitalized for an issue that required "immediate attention." "These few words from Mark Twain about life changes, seemed perfect to pass on at this time. ‘Challenges,’ he said, ‘make life interesting, however overcoming them is what makes life meaningful,'" Buffett said.
