Billy Ray Cyrus cheated death during sepsis, vocal paralysis battle before staging music comeback

Billy Ray Cyrus fought through vocal paralysis and a near-fatal battle with sepsis before staging his return to music.

Cyrus revealed he experienced a "miracle" recovery after his 2024 diagnosis. While the "Achy Breaky Heart" crooner didn't reveal many details of his health scare, he did share the advice his grandson gave him.

"In this very broken moment of my life, my little grandson Bear looked at me and said, ‘Try again.' And up until that moment, he had never spoken to me at all.
