Earlier this year fans got an update from March where he shared that he struggled with suicidal thoughts during his difficult health battle.

March shared in a personal note:

In the face of all my setbacks, I try to remain positive—the leg braces are an exciting new tool on my road to recovery. I am trying to get my tracheotomy removed, and I try my best to effect positive change in this facility for myself and all the residents here. I try to add humor, glamour, and a little glitter to my world.
