You must be my lucky stars too!” she added.

Page Six exclusively reported in June that Madge, 64, was rushed to a New York City hospital after being found unresponsive at her home. She was initially intubated while being treated in the intensive care unit before being transferred to regular care.
Her longtime manager, Guy Oseary, later explained that Madonna “developed a serious bacterial infection which led to a several day stay in the ICU.”

Sources also told Page Six that she was expected to make a full recovery.
After returning home a few days later, the “Material Girl” singer’s family was seen coming in and out of her Upper East Side manse.

The “Frozen” songstress broke her silence on July 12, telling fans that she was “on the road to recovery.”
“My first thought when I woke up in the hospital was my children,” she wrote on Instagram along with a selfie.
“My second thought was that I did not want to disappoint anyone who bought tickets to my tour. … My focus now is my health and getting stronger and I assure you, I’ll be back with you as soon as I can!”
