Rocker turned reality TV star Bret Michaels remains in an intensive care unit following a major brain haemorrhage last week.
An update posted on the Poison frontman and Celebrity Apprentice star's official website explains the ailing rocker's condition and prognosis.
"At this point Bret remains in ICU in critical condition. He is under 24 hour doctors' care and supervision.
"We are hopeful that further tests will locate the source of the bleeding, which has still not been located. As we all know Bret is a fighter and we are hopeful that once all is complete the slurred speech, blurred vision and dizziness, etc., will be eliminated and all functions will return to normal," reads the post.
Michaels, 47, was rushed to hospital last Thursday after suffering from a headache which he reportedly likened to "getting hit in the head with a baseball bat over and over again," a source tells People.com.
Doctors discovered he suffered a massive subarachnoid haemorrhage (bleeding at the base of his brain stem).
Big, big trouble
Meanwhile, Donald Trump paints a rather worrying picture for the singer's future.
Trump tells website TMZ that the Celebrity Apprentice contestant is fighting for his life, is in "big, big trouble, and the prognosis is not great".
He adds: "He turns out to be an amazing competitor, and ultimately that is the thing that could save his life."
Trump has reportedly kept in close contact with the people at the hospital where Michaels remains under 24-hour supervision.
The odd-coiffed mogul also speculates that the rocker's stage mishap during the 2009 Tony Awards could be linked to his current condition.
A stage backdrop struck Michaels during the awards bash last year.
The singer's reps haven't confirmed Trump's remarks. But whether they're born out of pragmatism or pessimism, it's true to say that Michaels has a battle on his hands.
Strength and honour to you, Michaels.
