Roughstock has learned that Randy Travis has been taken under the knife late Monday to help alleviate problems from his Viral Cardiomyapothy, his family has confirmed.

Travis became under the weather this past weekend after returning to the road for the first time since court-ordered rehab stemming from an Alcohol-related offense in 2012. He was admitted to the Hospital on Saturday -- via airlift -- and news broke yesterday that he was in Critical Condition.

"We have been told he has had surgery," Teresa Traywick, the wife of Randy's brother Ricky Traywick, told People. "Our prayers are going out to him because my husband just had a heart attack last year, so it is in their family."

“Their mother passed away at an early age with her heart, so it is like these boys are following right in their footsteps,” she adds. “My prayers are with them. That’s all I can say right now.”

Roughstock continues to extend our thoughts and prayers with Randy and his family as he sets about his recovery. We will keep you updated as news warrants.
