He struggled to remember what happened during his month-long hospitalization and had to look through photos of his time in the ICU to jog his memory.

"What I can say is, man, it definitely is real," he said. "I didn't take it for granted. And truth be told, I'm a living, walking testimony. To let y'all know, I was really down bad for the last month and a half. While I was in there - you know, I don't even remember the day I went in. That's how messed up I was."

"I was really, like, in a dream, and I ain't gonna lie, I woke up about two times and all I remember is just seeing a white light."

He struggled with life-threatening complications where his different body parts became inflamed and his organs showed serious problems.

"What I ended up having was called a [multisystem] inflammatory syndrome: MIS," he explained. "All my organs became inflamed. My heart started beating irregularly, my kidneys went out, my liver started to go bad. Mind you, I didn't know what was going on at the time. I was out."
