Mark Chesnutt is taking a break from touring to focus on his health, although the country singer-songwriter didn’t give any specific information on his health issues.

“Many of you who know me well, know that I have been struggling with a battle that I’ve fought to overcome for many years on my own,” he wrote on social added. “Now, after some extreme health issues I’ve recently experienced the time has come. The fight is over.”

Chesnutt added that he has decided to take “the time to get healthy.”

“I’ll be coming off the road for the next couple of months to concentrate on getting well…to take care of me, my family and so that I can get back out on the road, to give back to ALL of you who have shown me unconditional support, care and love throughout my entire career,” Chesnutt said.

The singer also revealed that he plans to return to road in February.
