But we're happy to report that the baker seems to be in better condition now, according to his Instagram account. Citing stress and needing to take "better care" of himself as the culprit to the health scare.

What's the point of passing your deductible if you can't enjoy the delicacy of hospital food! I'm now stable, but I will need to cut stress and take care of myself better. Thanks for the love and support everyone.
