AceShowbiz - New update on August Alsina's condition after he collapsed onstage earlier this week has emerged. On Friday, September 19, the singer revealed in an Instagram post that the incident left him in a three-day coma.
"This is a bit graphic but i wanted to share this w/ every follower of mine. I woke up out of a 3 day coma... &This guy @banggang_moneyteam right here never once left my side," Alsina wrote, captioning a photo of him lying in a hospital bed.
He went on thanking everyone for their prayers, adding, "What I'm tryna say is cherish the ones in life who cherish you & take good care of yourself. Your life can be gone in a split second. I'm recovering well and thank you for all of your prayers & concerns."
After he passed out and fell offstage when he made a tour stop at New York City's Irving Plaza, Alsina was transported to a hospital and he had to be treated in ICU following multiple seizures. Doctors didn't find any drugs other than marijuana in his system. They believed the fall was caused by exhaustion and dehydration.
