Prayers up for the homie Nick Cannon! Mariah Carey took to her Twitter very early this morning to announce her husband had suffered from mild kidney failure while the two were vacationing in Aspen with their twin babies. She then gave a further update on her website. Check it out after the jump. Get well soon, Nick!

This is us in the hospital – role reversal; Last year it was me attached to the machines (after having dembabies) and Nick was there with me through it, and now here we are.

We’re trying to be as festive as possible under the circumstances but please keep Nick in your thoughts because this is very painful. They tried to kick me out of the hospital but here I am pon de bed with Mr. C.

We’re doing OK but we’re “straaaaaanded in Aspen”. #DramaticDivaPlace (I know, we could be in a lot worse places) but the truth is as long as we’re together, we’re OK. I’m not trying to make light out of the situation because it’s a serious moment that’s very tough on all of us so please keep us and our family in your prayers. LYM.
