"My first thought when I woke up in the hospital was about my children. My second thought was that I didn't want to disappoint anyone who bought tickets to my tour. I also didn't want to disappoint the people who have worked tirelessly with me over the past months to create my show. I hate to disappoint anyone," the singer added.

"My focus now is on my health and getting stronger, and I assure you, I will be back as soon as possible! The current plan is to reschedule my tour in North America and start in Europe in October," she further stated.

"I couldn't be more grateful for the care and support. With love, M.," she concluded.
