Country music star shares major update after battling life-threatening infection
After having to cancel her return to the stage amid a days-long stay in the hospital, Lisa McHugh returned to social media with an update on Wednesday.
It was about as good as it gets.
McHugh shared a photo of herself on Facebook sitting on her couch with her children snuggled in next to her and wrote, "So happy to be finally home with my babies & feeling a lot better. Thank you for all the love & prayers."
Fans loved to see it.
"Wonderful news!" Mary Byrne wrote. "Speedy recovery but stay safe."
"Great you a feeling better and home with your family," Kathleen O'Leary replied. "God bless Lisa."
"Delighted to see you're home with your little ones Lisa,' Geraldine Murdaugh replied. "Keep well."
The latest update came just a couple of days after she shared the news that she appeared to be turning a corner.
"My body is finally responding well to the treatment — infection markers are coming down each day and I'm really hoping to be home soon," she wrote on Facebook. "It's been a tough week health-wise, but the hardest part of all has been the guilt. This is at least the 6thtime in the last 18 months I've had to suddenly disappear for days, sometimes weeks, without being able to explain anything to Milo. That part breaks my heart more than anything.
"Please keep my little babies at home in your prayers too," she added. "Thank you for all the love, messages and support as always — it truly means so much. And roll on March 1st… my new year is starting then."
McHugh first revealed her health situation last week.
"Hi everyone, I'm so sorry to say that I won't be able to perform tonight with @iamnathancarter at the @clanree_hotel, Letterkenny," she wrote on Facebook. "I was admitted to the hospital a couple of days ago with sepsis, but I want to reassure everyone, that, I'm in the right place and receiving the best care and treatment to help get things under control. I just need to take a little bit of time to rest and recover, but I will be absolutely fine.
"I'm so disappointed to miss out on what was meant to be my first live show back, but, I'm sure you'll have a fantastic night with Nathan as always!" she added. "I can't wait to see you all very soon. Thank you for all your continued support and understanding – it truly means the world. Looks like my New Year is staring in March instead."
McHugh, 37, is a native of Glasgow, Scotland and she began her career in Northern Ireland back in 2010. She has won "Female Vocalist of the Year five times there. She also made headlines when she performed at the Grand le Opry in 2012.
McHugh has released seven studio albums and one live album. Her last album, "Watch Me," came in 2023.
