"I got streptococca-something... It's a form of pneumonia and they spent three weeks keeping me alive basically. I'm very weak, but I feel amazing," said George, according to Reuters.

"It was basically by far the worst month of my life, but I'm incredibly, incredibly fortunate to be here," he said. "If I wasn't spiritual enough before the last four, five weeks, then I certainly am now."

He has been battling to get well in a hospital in Austria, so he is so thankful to the doctors that he was lucky to have treat him.
