I suppose the best place to have a medical emergency is in a room full of doctors, which is exactly what Randy Travis did. The 52 year old country crooner quite liteally passed out mid song at The Crystal Heart Gala, an annual benefit for the Huguley Memorial Medical Center in Fort Worth, Texas.
After review it seems the diagnosis was simple dehyration. Travis, who suffers from seasonal allergies had taken a plural of decongestants.
“Mr. Travis was overcome by a combination of dehydration, over-the-counter allergy medications, and caffeine use,” the statement said. “This, combined with the heat of the stage lights, caused him to pass out.”
The good news is the doctors rushed to his aid, examined him on his tour bus and now he rests comfortably. Warner Music Nashville spokeswoman said Travis expects to resume his 25th anniversary tour without interruption. His next show will be Saturday in Bristol, Tenn
