Bret Michaels - The Poison frontman suffered a brain hemorrhage in April and was hospitalized recently after what doctors called a warning stroke. He faces surgery for a hole in his heart.
Michael says he isn't 100 percent but plans to continue his tour, starting Friday in Biloxi, Miss. Though Bret Michaels credited his quick recovery to good medical care and a guardian angel in an NBC "Today Show" interview on Monday, the rocker's hardy spirit has a lot to do with his resilience, doctors and psychologists say.
"Bret Michaels is very strong in hardiness," says Salvatore Maddi, a professor of psychology and social behavior at University of California, Irvine, who studies psychological hardiness.
