The public can finally breathe! A few days after the violent fall of which Dave was the victim in his apartment in Paris, he gave his news. The 77-year-old singer spoke to Télé Loisirs by phone, “in a still tired voice“: “I am in a military hospital which I did not know existed, I am well taken care of but it is not settled yet. When you have little sores at 77, it’s not the same thing as at 17! So it’s a little more worrying but it’s not the end of a life that is coming!” he said. A few hours before, Dave was coming out of a heavy operation necessary for his recovery: “I was operated on the day before yesterday, it is an important operation which was successful. But, at the level of the head, it is necessary to allow time so that it resolves itself“. The artist was reassuring until the end, stating that despite his fall, he had “nothing broken“.
The convalescence is likely to be long for Dave but the singer has, in his misfortune, been very lucky. The consequences of this fall could have been much greater according to the words of his friend Daniel Auteuil on France Bleu: “He hit his head well, he asserted. He is fine. He has suffered a lot but he will get better and better and I am very happy about it.“.
If he knows he needs a lot of rest, Dave can’t wait to get back on stage and find his audience: “I hope 2022 will be a better year than 2021 and 2020. We artists hope to work again as before because it’s one of our favorite things in life. So without showing off, I hope to be able to get back on stage in mid-April.“Her husband Patrick Loiseau will do everything to get him back on his feet. In love for 51 years, the couple is ready to do anything to maintain the course of their love: “When we are lucky enough to have this beautiful hooked atom, one without the other, we no longer exist. When we found it, we have to do everything to make it last” declared Dave. And it is well known, unity is strength!
