The family of singer and “Partridge Family” star David Cassidy is dropping what they’re doing to be by his side while he remains hospitalized. Reports this week said he was hospitalized for liver and kidney failure.
A representative for Cassidy told People that he was placed in a medically induced coma but that he was conscious on Saturday, Nov. 18, and was surrounded by his family, including his son Beau Cassidy, and former wife Sue Shifrin. His brother, Patrick Cassidy, was also there.
“Unfortunately David is very sick. However he is getting the support he needs, surrounded by the people he loves most,” the post read. “Thank you very much for your love and concern that you have expressed in your messages to him.”
TMZ reported over the weekend that the 67-year-old singer’s health situation is apparently dire.
Geffen also told AP that there’s nothing “imminent” about his health condition, and doctors are looking to “keep him as well as they can until they can find another liver.”
David Cassidy said in February that he’s battling dementia after he fell on stage at a Los Angeles concert. The fall sparked concern among fans.
