The Cleveland Clinic has treated Saudi Arabian princesses and similarly royal cats from around the globe. The famed hospital can now add legendary glam-rockin' poet Lou Reed to its resume.
He received a liver transplant a few weeks back, effectively saving his life. His wife, Laurie Anderson, said: "It's as serious as it gets. He was dying."
Reed wrote:
I am a triumph of modern medicine, physics and chemistry. I am bigger and stronger than ever. My Chen Taiji and health regimen has served me well all of these years, thanks to Master Ren Guang-yi. I look forward to being on stage performing, and writing more songs to connect with your hearts and spirits and the universe well into the future.
Speaking of Lou Reed, cleveland Clinic
