Rock legend Neil Young recovering from surgery after brain aneurysm

WINNIPEG (CP) - Rock legend Neil Young was recovering Friday from surgery to correct a brain aneurysm.

His doctors said he's expected to make a "total recovery." The news cast a pall on this year's Juno Awards, which were organized around the attendance of Winnipeg's biggest musical export. The normally reclusive Young was scheduled to kick off Sunday's show.

"I'm really disappointed that I won't be able to make it to Winnipeg," said Young in a statement from his hospital bed at New York's Weill Cornell Medical Centre.

...

"Mr. Young had a dangerous brain aneurysm and was treated successfully by the minimally invasive neuroradiology team," said Gobin in a statement. "He is now resting comfortably . . . but we strongly recommend that he not travel for several days."
