After a scary day Monday, all signs are looking positive for Alabama broadcaster Chris Stewart.

The Crimson Tide basketball and baseball play-by-play announcer posted a message on Twitter on Wednesday reassuring fans his medical situation is improving.

"Extremely grateful to everyone who's reached out, and all the thoughts and prayers," Stewart posted. "Doing great, wonderful wife and great family and friends are making sure I'm ok! Will keep you updated as I can. Much love, Chris."

Stewart had what Alabama athletics director Greg Byrne described as a "serious medical procedure" on Monday.

Close friend and basketball broadcast partner Bryan Passink visited Stewart in the hospital Monday night -- a positive sign more than just family was allowed into the room. He posted a tweet saying Stewart had "a tough day" but was doing well.

Improvement continued on into Tuesday and Wednesday.

It sounds like Stewart is eager to get back behind the mic as soon as he can calling Alabama baseball games. He's been in that role since 2000 and has been the basketball play-by-play man for 16 years.

Stewart is also the host of Nick Saban and Avery Johnson's weekly television shows and does radio sideline reporting for Alabama football.
