However, he never disclosed to his fans what exactly happened to him but extended his gratitude to them. “I went through something that I thought I would never, ever go through,” he said in the video. “I know a lot of people were waiting or wanting to hear updates but to be honest with you, I just didn’t want you to see me like that, man. I want you to see me laughing, having a good time partying, cracking a joke, doing a movie, television show. I didn’t want you to see me with tubes running out of me and trying to figure out if I was gonna make it through.”
He continued, “To them, to God, to a lot of great medical people, I’m able to leave you this video,” he shared. “I cannot tell you how great it feels to have your family kick in in such a way, and y’all know they kept it airtight. They didn’t let anything out. They protected me, and that’s what I hope that everyone could have in moments like these.”
He also informed his fans that he was not “paralyzed” or “blind,” as many of his fans thought he was. “I went to hell and back, and my road to recovery had some potholes as well. But I’m coming back, and I’m able to work,” he concluded. However, as of the recent posts, the actor confirmed that he is doing okay and is completely healthy now.
