Spiritualized man recovering from near fatal illness

Spiritualized frontman Jason Pierce is recovering from an as-yet-unspecified illness which apparently nearly caused his death. His partner Juliette has written a not completely coherent message on the band's website (to be fair, she's presumably had a stressful few weeks) that reads thus: "After nearly dying twice in the last two and half weeks Jason has now and fantastically made an alarming and brilliant recovery and is due home today. He is still fragile and really weak weighing in at maybe 8 stone but love and happiness on his side. Weirdly he is still Jason though. No thoughts about how lucky he is just mentioned how mad it is that his record is written almost like he was ill before. Not that he's into esp and stuff just in the most beautiful way. Love to all and everyone who sent him get well wishes cos he needed it and must have heard it and thankfully he's here and back and coming home."
