Avril Lavigne has revealed that at the height of her battle with Lyme disease, the singer was sure that death was coming. The 34-year-old, in a recent interview, stated she was bed ridden for two years from the tick-born illness. "I had accepted that I was dying," Lavigne told Billboard magazine.

"And I felt in that moment like I was underwater and drowning, and I was trying to come up to gasp for air. And literally under my breath, I was like, 'God, help me keep my head above the water."
