WE BET HE WANTED TO GO HOME!!!
THE CHAMP WAS SUFFERING THROUGH CHRONIC KIDNEY PROBLEMS DURING HIS ENTIRE RUN ON AMERICAN IDOL… AND NOW HIS FATHER REVEALS JUST HOW MUCH HE WENT THROUGH DURING EACH WEEK OF COMPETITION.
PHILLIP PHILLIPS SENIOR TELLS PEOPLE.COM, "Eight operations since we started American Idol ... He's hitting 50 percent, but he's still up there swinging away."
EIGHT SURGERIES? IMAGINE WHAT HE COULD DO AT 100 PERCENT! HIS DAD ADDS, "They've just seen a glimpse of what Phillip can do. He's been doing [well], but it's just grueling hours and it's just amazing what he's done through the journey."
PHIL'S BEEN DEALING WITH A BUILD UP OF KIDNEY STONES AND UNDERWENT MULTIPLE OPERATIONS TO REMOVE THEM. NOW HE'LL UNDERGO MORE SERIOUS SURGERY TO REPAIR THE KIDNEY STONE PROBLEMS. HE'LL BE HOSPITALIZED FOR SEVERAL DAYS, AND HE'LL NEED A FEW WEEKS TO RECOVER.
BUT PHILLIP SAYS HE SHOULD BE ALL GOOD IN TIME FOR THIS SUMMER'S IDOL TOUR. WE CANT WAIT. HIS FATHER ADDS, "I can't wait for America and the whole world to see him [after his surgery], because he's a big cut-up. He's going to have some fun."
