Bret Michaels' Tour Bus Learns Hospital Locations
Bret Michaels Band bus driver gets serious.
A few weeks ago sources said Bret Michaels could potentially return to the stage as early as May 26. Michaels' sister claims that date is too early, but a return to the road may be imminent: Bret Michaels' staff, especially the bus driver, are mapping out hospital addresses on the road.
It's a smart and necessary move. TMZ is reporting that the Bret Michaels Band is prepping hard for emergency stops, should Bret Michaels experience another health problem while his band is touring. Michaels' brain hemorrhage has alarmed the nation -- but especially his people. One of the fortunate points of the story is that Michaels suffered the hemorrhage at home, with his longtime, on-and-off girlfriend Kristi Gibson rushing him to the emergency room near their Scottsdale, Arizona home.
TMZ quotes a Michaels source as saying that "someone in the crew will be required to provide the bus drivers with a list of every hospital from current location to next location ... addresses and all ... so in the event of an emergency, they have the info readily available."
It's possible new technology -- medical and uber-GPS devices -- could be in order for Bret Michaels's tour too...but it's clear that the personal and professional folks surrounding Bret are optimistic that Michaels will make a full recovery from his April 23 brain hemorrhage. As we reported last week, Bret Michaels has been released from the Phoenix neurological hospital where he spent two weeks, and he's undergoing physical therapy in another clinic. Insiders say he's coming along with incredible progress.
