Jimmy Buffett Provides Health Update Following Hospitalization

Jimmy Buffett Provides Health Update Following Hospitalization

Jimmy Buffett, who was briefly hospitalized to address some issues that required immediate attention, recently took to social media last week to provide an update about his health.

“Thank you for the outpouring of support and well-wishes,” Buffett wrote. “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(ting) myself back in good shape.”

The musician also said that he’s eager to perform again, saying, “Once I am in shape, we will look at the whens and wheres of shows. I think playing is as therapeutic for me as it is for fans to listen and sing along.”

“Looking forward to announcing a new date for Charleston as well as some new shows! Fins up!” he added.

Buffett, who was in Boston when he was admitted to the hospital, hasn’t shared the exact nature of the medical issue that required him to get hospitalized. “Growing old is not for sissies, I promise you,” he wrote on Facebook.
