He added: “I cannot tell you how great it feels to have your family kick in in such a way and you know, they kept it airtight, they didn’t let nothing out. They protected me. And that’s what I hope everyone could have in the moments like these… 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. I want you to see me laughing, having a good time, partying, cracking a joke, doing a movie or a television show.”
