Posted on the official Blind Guardian website by Hansi:

Hi everyone, this morning I got a phone call from Marcus who told me that he is in hospital for quite a few days. Pretending to be a skateboarder he finally stumbled and fell right in front of his house and broke his leg, last Saturday. Since a regular fracture is not enough, Marcus took the severe way and made it a little more complicated. The leg got broken 4 times. He is going to undertake some surgeries and some serious therapies before he will be able to use his leg normally. First surgery will take place somewhere during the week. I will keep you informed.

Another message was posted by Pedro:

You can leave a Get Well message for Marcus at the address: getwell@blind-guardian.com. We will send all messages to Marcus after a few days.
