Pop star Pink is on the road to recovery following a difficult week after hip surgery.
The “Raise Your Glass” singer said in an Instagram post that she’ll be on crutches for six weeks, but didn’t disclose why she needed to get the operation.
“It was a brutal first week full of tears and pain med depression, ulcers from meds and constant fevers, but my (husband Carey Hart) brought me through,” Pink wrote late Wednesday.
She said Hart, whom she’s been married to since 2006, “brought me coffee in the shower, lugged around my 100 pound CPM contraptions every where I went, dried my tears, cooked me oatmeal, kept track of my meds, got me my phone charger, plugged in my compression machines, took my temp, made the bed, and talked me off the ledge.”
The 42-year-old Pink, whose real name is Alecia Beth Moore, also praised her surgeons, writing she gets to see top doctors due to her husband’s status as a motocross athlete.
“I am never not completely grateful,” Pink noted.
Pink, who is known for songs such as “Get the Party Started” and “Lady Marmalade,” said she plans to make a full recovery.
“It is humbling for a very independent person like myself to be rendered physically unable and dependent, even if for a couple of months,” she wrote. “I’m learning the gift of accepting help. My journey will be quick and intentional.”
