Radney Foster is taking even more time away as he continues to focus on his health.
In early July, the country singer took to his social media to let fans know he was recovering from a serious infection that landed him in the hospital and eventually the ICU.
At the time, Radney’s team announced that several of his upcoming shows would be postponed so he could prioritize getting better.
“Radney is recovering from a serious infection that required hospitalization,” the statement read. “While he is improving and has been released from the ICU, his doctors have advised him to take time away from the road to focus on his health.”
Radney ended up making his return to the stage on July 14. However, not long after, the singer realized his battle with sickness wasn’t over just yet.
On Tuesday, July 21, he shared another update with fans, explaining that he is still not well enough to make a full return to the stage.
Radney Foster Shares “Setback” In His Recovery
Radney hasn’t shared many details about his illness, but the 67-year-old revealed that he’s dealing with a “setback” in his recovery from sepsis.
He admitted that he came back to performing too soon and realized his body wasn’t ready yet.
“I’m still recovering from sepsis. My energy just isn’t where it needs to be yet,and I’m dealing with some balance issues that make traveling and performing unsafe,” he said.
Because of this, his doctors have advised him to cancel all of his scheduled shows through the end of September.
“That’s a hard thing to admit, but I’ve learned I have to listen to my doctors and my body,” he adds. “I’m going to spend the next couple of months focused on healing so I can come back healthy enough to give you the shows you deserve.”
