Get well soon Simon. At your age I would have thought you’d be slowing down, perhaps you need stybalisers 😂xx

Be healthy, get better, show your little one how to learn from mistakes!

And whenever you'll be in that condition, bring back yourself to the shows.

Blessings!

Wishing you all the very best Simon! I broke my back in 2011 and also have a rod and screws to cover where I used to have a T12. Some quick advice - you will recover, take your time and don’t rush. When you’re ready, do plenty of Pilates to get your core strength and balance back

I broke mine in ‘15 in a car accident, T12 consist of foreign objects. I truly believe I’m a half inch shorter. my doctor says it’s my imagination BS. At any rate I thank God I’m alive as well as yourself, Simon and all of those who’ve suffered a traumatic injury. Good Luck Simon

Very sorry to hear this @SimonCowell ... but at the same time, rather gratified to know that I'm not alone! On day one I flew over the handlebars of my ebike and smashed my face. Bike, dog and I went home in a black cab.

I am so glad you are up to Tweeting already. Wishing you a speedy recovery, Simon. I had a heart attack during this pandemic so I agree with you 100% about the doctors and nurses...the nicest people in the world!
