Madonna’s emotional open letter to her children a month after leaving ICU: “My best medicine”

On June 29 it was made public that Madonna had been found unconscious on the bathroom floor of her house and admitted immediately in the Intensive Care Unit of the New York hospital, where he remained for a week until he was discharged.

The artist suffered a collapse due to a bacterial infection that, fortunately, was left with a great scare and since then She is recovering at home surrounded by her closest friends and family..

A month after that unpleasant episode, the singer has shared on Instagram some emotional words of gratitude to her children, Lourdes Leon (26), Rocco Ritchie (22), David Banda (19), Mercy James (18) and the twins Stella y Esther (10), who were not separated from her at any time.

“The love of family and friends is the best medicine. A month out of the hospital and I can reflect. As a mother you can really get caught up in your children’s needs, but when things turned sour, my children really showed up for me. I saw a side of them I’ve never seen before. It made all the difference,” she wrote.

“If you enlarge this photo I’m holding, you’ll see a Polaroid taken by Andy Warhol of Keith Haring wearing a jacket with Michael Jackson’s face painted on it. A perfect triangle of brilliance. He was an artist who touched so many lives, including mine. I sobbed when I opened this gift because I realized how lucky I am to be alive. Thank you to all my angels who protected me and let me stay to finish my job,” she added.
