In early July 2011, Fatt underwent heart surgery after feeling unwell for several weeks and having a blackout.

He missed the summer US tour as a result, after not missing a show in twenty years.

Famous quotes containing the word health:

    Of all natural forces, vitality is the incommunicable one.... Vitality never “takes.” You have it or you haven’t it, like health or brown eyes or a baritone voice.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    Criticism is often not a science; it is a craft, requiring more good health than wit, more hard work than talent, more habit than native genius. In the hands of a man who has read widely but lacks judgment, applied to certain subjects it can corrupt both its readers and the writer himself.
    —Jean De La Bruyère (1645–1696)

    A little health now and again is the ailing person’s best remedy.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
