“April
11
[2023],
I
was
having
a
bad
headache,
and
I
asked
my
boy
for
an
aspirin.
I
realized
quickly
that
when
you’re
in
a
medical
emergency,
your
boys
don’t
know
what
the
f–k
to
do,”
he
said
on
What
Had
Happened
Was,
released
Dec.
10. “Before
I
could
get
the
aspirin,
I
went
out.
I
don’t
remember
20
days.”
Following
his
hemorrhagic
stroke,
the
actor
underwent
surgery
and
later
had
to
relearn
skills
like
walking
and
talking
at
a
rehabilitation
facility.
“Twenty
days
I
don’t
remember,
but
on
May
4th
I
woke
up,”
he
said. “And
I
when
I
woke
up,
I
found
myself
in
a
wheelchair.
I
couldn’t
walk,
in
a
wheelchair,
and
I
was
like, ‘Why
the
f–k
am
I
in
a
wheelchair?'”
Foxx,
father
of
daughters
Corinne
Foxx,
30,
and Anelise
Bishop,
16,
credits
his
family
for
keeping
his
medical
condition
private.
“They
didn’t
want
you
to
see
me
like
that.
And
I
didn’t
want
you
to
see
me
like
that,”
Jamie
said,
getting
emotional.
“I
want
you
to
see
me
like
this.”
