Nick Cannon Recovering from Sudden Kidney Failure with Mariah By his Bedside

While vacationing in Aspen, funny man Nick Cannon fell ill.

Nick Cannon, young, seemingly healthy, Mariah Carey money marrying, twin baby having, America’s Got Talent hosting, World by the Balls, Nick Cannon.  He is in the hospital recovering from kidney failure.  The only thing we officially know about the illness is that people are referring to it as “Mild” kidney failure.

We learned this via twitter, with an accompanying photo of Mariah, cuddled up next to her hubby, and what it looks like, is helping him sip from a water bottle.  She tweeted,

“Please pray for Nick as he’s fighting to recover from a mild kidney failure.”

She then posted an update on her blog,

We’re trying to be as festive as possible under the circumstances but please keep Nick in your thoughts because this is very painful. They tried to kick me out of the hospital but here I am on the bed with Mr. C.”

“This is us in the hospital – role reversal; Last year it was me attached to the machines,” she said referring to giving birth to her children. “Nick was there with me through it, and now here we are.”

It seems like the case is mild because Mariah had jokes,

“We’re doing OK but we’re “straaaaaanded in Aspen”#DramaticDivaPlace, But the truth is as long as we’re together, we’re OK… please keep us and our family in your prayers.”

When the experts way in, it appears that a mild kidney failure, according to Dr. Giselle Guerra happens very suddenly,

“Acute kidney failure happens all of sudden, whereas chronic failure happens over time, often as a result of other illnesses like diabetes or high blood pressure,” she said.  Acute kidney failure can range from mild to serious.  Serious cases may require dialysis and may develop into a chronic condition.

So I think the call for prayers is not overly dramatic.

I didn’t think the two of them would last, but they have done well together and look like they are continuing to support one another.  When asked about her relationship with Cannon, Mariah went head hunting for Kim K with a direct jab,

“I’m a real person,” Carey said. “Sometimes we make each other mad. Sometimes I make him mad.”

“That’s… why we are not divorced after four months.”

Wowzers!  We will stay close to this one.  Not the kidney failure, but the Kim K. /  Mariah Beef!!
