“I had a really bad pain in my head in Louisiana, and I did the show anyway,” he told the crowd. “I couldn’t really see well, so when we went to Houston, I went to the hospital, and the doctor was like, ‘You had a stroke.’ And the first thing I thought was like, ‘Oh, here I am still copying Jamie Foxx.'”
The health scare didn’t end there … he went on to reveal he also broke his foot, and doctors later found a hole in his heart requiring two surgeries.
Reflecting on the ordeal, he left the audience with a message that hit hard … “They say everyone has two lives, and the second life starts when you realize you have one. You should be living your life how you want. If we have to do this again, it can only get better.”
Fans had long wondered what really caused the cancelled tour dates. At the time, DG only said he needed surgery and time to heal. Now, it’s clear he wasn’t just stepping away from the stage … he was fighting to stay alive.
