She added: “Nicky is doing fine now but he had to be rushed to emergency two weeks ago because of a cardiac incident (tachycardia/arrhythmia). Some of you might remember he had a similar incident after his second spinal surgery last year (for Cauda Equina). This time he is trying to get a little more rest and has been concentrating on medical appointments.”

Last year, Brendon underwent surgery after he had suffered paralysis in his genitals and legs.

His manager claims it was caused by having to sleep in the hard concrete-floored jail cell after he was arrested for prescription fraud.

Back in October, Brendon’s manager, Theresa Fortier, shared that the star had been pulled out of all the promotions for his upcoming movies after suffering from paralysis issues.

Nevertheless, his sister said that he’s doing fine right now.
