Former Wildhearts Star Has Leg Amputated

(TeamRock) Former Wildhearts bassist Danny McCormack says he hopes to be back onstage by December after having his leg amputated. McCormack suffered an aneurysm last year and complications on the back of that have lead to his leg being amputated below the knee.

His band The Main Grains are due to support The Wildhearts in December, with McCormack hoping to be involved. He says: "Hi guys, as you all know I've been in hospital for some time now.

"Unfortunately the doctors have done everything they could, but after the aneurysm, the blood supply was compromised to my leg which has resulted in a below the knee amputation. I'm in physio at the moment and I'm in great spirits and look forward to seeing you all in December." Read more here.
