Jamie Foxx is speaking out and assuring fans he's on the mend after being hospitalized for an undisclosed medical condition back in April.

The 55-year-old actor took to Instagram early Saturday morning to share a three-minute video in which he speaks directly into the camera, offering thanks for all the support he's received since the health scare and sharing a few details about the frightening experience. «I went through something that I thought I would never, ever go through,» he shared.«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,» he explained. «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.»While Foxx did not disclose details about exactly what happened, he said that his sister, Deidra Dixon, and his daughter, Corinne Foxx, «saved my life.» «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 nothing out. They protected me, and that’s what I hope that everyone could have in moments like these.»The actor also made sure to shut down a few of the rumors that he'd seen about his condition, confirming that he is not «blind» or «paralyzed.» «I went to hell and back, and my road to recovery had some potholes as well,» he admitted.
