Madonna struggled walking to backyard after ‘near-death’ bacterial infection

The “Celebration” tour just got a tad more celebratory.

Madonna revealed new details about her battle with a bacterial infection while performing at the Kia Forum in LA on Monday.

“I would call in every other day and ask [my doctor] why I didn’t have any energy, when was my energy going to come back, when was I going to feel myself again, when can I go on tour again?” the Queen of Pop, 65, told the audience, per Entertainment Weekly. “All he would say is, ‘Go outside, in the sun.’”

However, the Material Girl revealed that even moving around her own home became a struggle.

“It was so hard for me to walk from my house to the backyard and sit in the sun,” she said. “I know that sounds insane, but it was difficult, and I didn’t know when I could get up again, when I could be myself again, and when I’d have my energy back.”

“It’s a strange thing to finally not feel like I was in control, and that was my lesson: to let go,” she went on.

“Thank you to everyone who’s here that took care of me and listened to all of my endless complaining and need for predictions that I could not have. You’re patient and you’re kind. You still are.”

Madonna revealed that she implemented a goal to be ready to tour after only two months of recovery.

“I took the oxygen out of my nose, I looked at him, and I said, ‘in two f—king months,’” the “Like A Virgin” songstress said, referring to a conversation she had with her manager, Guy Oseary.

“I just said it,” the singer stated. “Sometimes you just have to say s—t, put it out in the universe, and it happens.”

The music legend ultimately revealed that it was her fans and family who motivated her to resume training.

“My children are what really helped me pull through because they worked so hard. My children worked so hard. I didn’t want to let them down, so I just set a date, and that date became a reality,” she gushed, noting the various performances her kids give during segments of the show.

“I didn’t want to disappoint my fans,” she added. “I never do.”

The Post reached out to Madonna for comment.

Madonna was found unresponsive in her New York City apartment in June 2023.

Reports claimed that the singer was administered an injection of Narcan upon the discovery of her “lifeless body.”

Oseary, 51, later shared an update on his Instagram account, claiming that Madonna had “developed a serious bacterial infection which led to a several-day stay in the ICU.”

After months of training and getting back into touring shape, the seven-time Grammy winner officially kicked off her tour in London in October 2023.

“I didn’t think I was gonna make it. Neither did my doctors,” she said during the show’s opening night. “I forgot five days of my life — or my death … But my children were there — and my children always save me every time.”

Madonna is expected to continue with her world-wide tour through April 2024.
