Madonna has opened up about her recent health woes, saying her bacterial infection landed her in an induced coma for two whole days over the summer.

During a show in Brooklyn Saturday night, the “Material Girl” singer, 65, said she woke up in the hospital to her “scared” kids.

“The fact that I’m here right now is the f–king miracle,” she said of her June health scare at her Barclays Center concert as part of her “Celebration” world tour.

The Grammy winner gave a shout-out to her friend Shavawn, who rushed the singer to the hospital at the time.

“There are some very important people in the room tonight that were with me at the hospital. There’s one very important woman who dragged me to the hospital,” she said of Shavawn, who was in the audience.

“I don’t even remember; I passed out on my bathroom floor and woke up in the ICU … She saved my life.”

The “Like a Prayer” hitmaker also talked about having her kids all together in one room during the health scare.

“There were a couple of things I thought about when I first became conscious and I saw my six incredible children sitting around me — by the way, I had to almost die to get all my kids in one room — I know it’s kind of funny,” she quipped, referring to Lourdes Leon, 27, Rocco Ritchie, 23, David Banda, 18, Chifundo “Mercy” James, 17, and twins Stella and Estere, 11.

“But they were all pretty scared and I didn’t understand what was going on.”

She also thanked her Kabbalah teacher, Eitan Yardeni, was by her side throughout her health scare.

“The only voice I heard was his. I heard him say, ‘Squeeze my hand,’” Madonna told the crowd, according to a clip shared on X.

In June, the Queen Of Pop was found unresponsive in her NYC home after “strenuously rehearsing” and “putting in 12-hour days” in anticipation of her tour.

Madonna said the ordeal made her think about her own mother, who died aged 30 back in 1963.

“She was by herself,” the singer shared. “And I was thinking, ‘What if I left my children?’ That would destroy me to leave my children at this moment in their lives.”

“I wasn’t thinking about me. I was thinking about them, and I was thinking about my mother and how scared she must have been to know that she was going to leave us all behind,” she added.
