"Superstar" Billy Graham's wife Valerie provided an unfortunate update on his health issues as the legendary wrestler is back in the hospital.

Graham has been dealing with health issues for years, but things took a bad turn recently. Last month, he had a very bad infection in his ears that spread to the bones in his ears and while undergoing a procedure in his hospital room, he coded. The doctors managed to bring him back to life before putting him in the ICU. Graham was later moved from the ICU to the PCU, the Progressive Care Unit, before being let out of the hospital.

The latest update from his wife noted that he is back in the Mayo Clinic hospital. The following was written on his Facebook page:

“Fans and friends, the following are condition reports I have received from Billy's wife Valerie. Please consider contributing to their gofundme; today is the last day their insurance will cover the cost of the rehab center. They will now have to pay 200 a day out of pocket. Thanks everyone, and God bless.

"Please pray…they have called an ambulance to take Wayne back to the Mayo…the nurse clean them dressing on his pic line this morning and apparently didn’t do something right because now it’s coming out.

I know that God has him and he is under the Lords protection."

So the first procedure took place at 3am but was unsuccessful. They scheduled him another type of procedure to insert the pic line for 7am but it was delayed… we were both beyond exhausted but God and is infinite mercy was on us once again! They just got him back in his room about an hour ago with a pic line successfully placed! ♥️

They said the way the original pic came out could have killed him… but our Lord had other plans♥️

And last but not least….some of his hearing has returned!!!!!!

Yes I have to talk loudly and very very close to his ears but he can hear me for the first time in almost 2 months. I am so grateful and blessed to have you all in my life.

That would be great. I start paying the $200 a day tomorrow. Thanks Mike, we just got back to the nursing facility."

We hope that his health begins to improve soon. Click here if you would like to donate to his GoFundMe account.
