Bret Michaels is still in critical condition, but he's conscious and talking with slurred speech after suffering a brain hemorrhage late last week.
Brett was rushed to an undisclosed hospital with a severe headache. Doctors diagnosed a massive subarachnoid hemorrhage, or bleeding at the base of his brain stem.
A statement from his publicists said Bret was still under 24-hour supervision and in critical condition and that doctors were trying to locate the source of the bleeding.
The statement said: "Bret is a fighter and we are hopeful that once all is complete, the slurred speech, blurred vision and dizziness etc will be eliminated and all functions will return to normal."
