Recently, Mariah Carey began asking her fans to spare a thought and prayer for her husband Nick Cannon, who was hospitalized in Aspen.

Carey revealed the news on Twitter, where she then posted a picture of her husband in a hospital bed showing off her loving bedside manner. She’s holding a sippy cup with a pink straw next to him as he looks quite disgusted and ill.

“Please pray for Nick as he’s fighting to recover from a mild kidney failure #mybraveman,” she tweeted prior to elaborating on the “serious moment” in a blog post, according to an article in E! Entertainment.

Funny to think that just a year ago the roles between the two were reversed. Mariah was hooked up to plenty of machines after having dembabies. Nick stuck by her side through it and now she’s trying to do just the same.

She later wrote, “We’re trying to be as festive as possible under the circumstances but please keep Nick in your thoughts because this is very painful. They tried to kick me out of the hospital but here I am pon de bed with Mr. C.”

Mariah wrote also later on that they are attempting to make the best out of the situation, but didn’t reveal the timeframe for Nick to be in the hospital, what kind of condition he was in, or if he was making any progress.

Carey attempted to also make light of the situation, but also said that it’s a serious matter, “We’re going OK but we’re ‘straaaaaanded in Aspen. #DramaticDivaPlace (I know, we could be in a lot worse places) but the truth is as long as we’re together, we’re OK. I’m not trying to make light out of this situation because it’s a serious moment that’s very tough on all of us so please keep us and our family in your prayers.”

Well, Nick, from us to you, we hope that you’re feeling better soon. Let us know how the snow is in Aspen when you get a chance.
