"The doctors made sure that I'm still here today. I'm incredibly, incredibly fortunate to be here and incredibly fortunate to have picked up this bug where I did because apparently the hospital in Austria that they rushed me to was absolutely the best place in the world I could have been to deal with pneumonia," express.co.uk quoted Michael as saying.

"But it was by far the worst month of my life. I feel amazing. I mean I'm very weak, but I feel amazing," he added.
