American Idol Winner; Phillip Phillips Had Eight Operations During American Idol Run.

Imagine what Phillip Phillips could do if he
were 100 percent healthy.
The American Idol winner dazzled viewers
all season long, despite battling chronic
kidney problems – and having eight
separate surgeries – since the competition
began, his father told PEOPLE Wednesday
after an eventful finale.
The younger Phillips, 21, suffered with a
build up of kidney stones and underwent
multiple operations to remove them. In the
next few weeks, after another surgery to
reconstruct his kidneys, he is expected to
make a full recovery in time for the Idols Live
tour.
"The recovery's probably two to four
weeks," said his father. "He's healthy, he's
good. His kidneys are good. I can't wait for
America and the whole world to see him
[after his surgery], because he's a big cut-
up. He's going to have some fun."
The singer himself told reporters
Wednesday that the problems were a
struggle but that he had the support to get
through them.
"I'm going to get some surgery done, so I'm
going to get all better for the tour," he said.
"It was very tough [getting through the
season]. I had great doctors and great
people surrounding me [who] really helped
out, so it's just a blessing to be here."
Wow!...just speechless.
