NICK CANNON FOCUSES ON FATHERHOOD AFTER KIDNEY FAILURE
Nick Cannon has returned to work and says he feels 100% better since his battle with kidney failure.
In a recent discussion with MTV Cannon gave much credit to wife Mariah Carey for staying by his side during the whole ordeal. Nick also talked about how the experience made him appreciate fatherhood. Cannon states, “Right now my kids are everything — they’re always going to be everything, but when something like this happens to you, everything else is shut out and you’re just focused on them. So every second you just notice so many things … it just makes it so much more poignant. I love everything that they do and just want to be a part of everything.”
Nick also said, “There’s a second where you’re thinking, ‘What if I’m not able to instill the things I want to instill into my children?’ It just makes you think, like, ‘I need to give them everything I could possibly give them right now,’ and obviously it starts with love. I always considered myself as someone who was in great shape, but I was doing too much so my immune system got confused and just started attacking my kidney. You look at my Twitter picture and I look like I’m in shape, but I was putting the wrong stuff into my body, speeding all the time, not sleeping and eating properly. It’s all about taking time and really caring about yourself and how you fuel yourself.”

I pray that he takes the time to rest properly and enjoy his wife and kids. We all knew that living off of three hours of sleep per night or none at all was not good for his health, in addition to his many jobs. Hopefully this is something he can fully recover from with the proper diet and rest.
The baby looks just like his mom.
He did not have kidney failure. He had a urinary track infection. Attention seeking much? shm
Speedy recovery to Nick, back to work?
Dude needs to take it easy, saw him on tv last night and his face looked swollen.
This is a wake up call to SLOW down, stop chasing the $$$ and take care of your health.
here here. hopefully this little health scare has really made him appreciate what he has even more.
Wishing the Cannon’s good health! I adore Nick he’s a sweet fella and he needs to be here for his kids and wife
I thought I read somewhere that it was actually a UTI and not kidney failure??
Nice! I’m glad to see them happy. People doubted them at first, but I know their marriage will last forever! Glod bless them!
I hope he is really doing well.
I really like Nick, now, he seems so much more mature and focused then when he was younger. Nick seems like such a wonderful father and husband. God bless this family!
I wish them well & will keep him in my prayers. They are a happy couple aren’t they?
I love them! If they had a reality show, i would watch! lol.
After so much joy this had to happen. This is the happiest I have ever seen Mariah so Nick’s sickness is a heavy blow to her. I hope he gets better without the need of a transplant.
