Jeremih Shares First Photo Of Himself Since Being Discharged From Hospital

After being discharged from the hospital following his COVID-19 diagnosis, Jeremih returned to the 'gram.

On Tuesday (December 9), the R&B singer marked his return to social media by sharing two photos of himself: a selfie from a hospital bed and a seemingly recent shot of him getting his hair done. "THANK GOD IM STILL HERE ," he captioned the Instagram Series. "THANK YA’LL FOR THE 🙏🏾 UP #imbackkkk."

As fans know, Jeremih contracted a “severe” case of coronavirus last month. “The COVID-19 condition he’s experiencing is rare for a young man his age without underlying conditions," the 33-year-old singer's spokesperson said at the time. “There’s no shame in contracting COVID-19, and people that have it need to be responsible and considerate of others. Everyone diagnosed with COVID-19 is affected differently. Unfortunately for Jeremih, COVID-19 viciously attacked his body.”

Jeremih spent most of the last month in the hospital due to his severe coronavirus symptoms. At one point, he was placed in the ICU and was put on a ventilator. Thankfully, his health improved soon after, and he was transferred out of the ICU, taken off the ventilator, and later discharged from Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago.

“First and foremost, I would like to thank God and the incredible team of doctors and nurses at Northwestern Memorial Hospital for saving my life," Jeremih said in a statement after his hospital release. "I will be forever grateful. I would also like to thank my family and friends for all their prayers and well wishes. I’m overwhelmed with gratitude."

“A special thanks to Chance the Rapper, 50 Cent and Diddy for their love and support," he added. "I would like to thank all my fans and people around the world who prayed for me. I’m getting stronger everyday, and look forward to spending time with my sons.”

Despite being recently discharged from the hospital, Jeremih is already preparing to release new music. On Monday (December 8), it was announced that he and Chance the Rapper are dropping a holiday album on Friday (December 11). The project is titled Merry Christmas Lil Mama: The Gift That Keeps on Giving and will include the collaboration will include 12 tracks.
