Jamie Foxx is opening up for the first time about his medical scare. On July 22, The 55-year-old actor, singer and comedian posted an emotional message on social media overnight. In the clip, Foxx started off by thanking everyone who sent him well wishes and prayers.
“I cannot even begin to tell you how far it took me and how it brought me back,” he said. “I went through something that I thought I would never ever go through. 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.”
“I want you to see me laughing, having a good time, partying, cracking a joke, doing a movie (or) television show. I didn’t want you to see me with tubes running out of me and trying to figure out if I was going to make it through,” he continued.
“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 nothing out,” Fox added. “They protected me. And that’s what I hope everyone could have in the moments like these.”
“People saying what I got, some people said I was blind, but as you can see, the eyes are working just fine,” Foxx said making a funny face. “They said I was paralyzed. I’m not paralyzed. But I did go through — 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.”
“And I just wanted to say that I love everybody and I love all the love that I got,” he added.
“If you see me out from now on and every once in a while, I just burst into tears, it’s because it’s been tough, man,” he said. “I’ve been sick, man. But now, I’ve got my legs under me, so you’re going to see me out.”
