What is the update on The Voice winner, Jason Sundance's health?
In the Facebook post, the star's wife, Misty, thanked people for their prayers because she believed they saved him.
She said that the bullet did no internal damage as it went above his navel and sat into his abdominal wall, missing all his organs. Sharing further, she said:
"He will not require surgery as they are not removing the bullet. I’m sure [his doctor] said why but my head is in a fog right now. Him being on the bigger side was a good thing. Bullet is in his fatty tissue".

"He was out of the vehicle reaching in to grab his 22 when he grabbed it the 22 came out of its holster and hit the exterior of the Jeep just right and went off. Sundance said it happened so fast and he could see the bullet dislodging".
Explaining the events right after he shot himself, Misty said that he didn't call 911 because he had forgotten his phone. Instead, he drove down the driveway to the main road to hail a car and asked them for help. According to what he told her, someone stopped to help him.
The said person turned around and called 911 for him. She also said that Jason gave her the details while he was still heavily medicated and added that he was "lucky" and "grateful" he survived the life-threatening incident.
