Washington, October 14
Actor, singer and comedian Jamie Foxx recently opened up about his health issues during the one-man show, One More Chance: An Evening with Jamie Foxx in Atlanta, reported People.
Taking to his Instagram handle, he shared pictures from the show and wrote, "God is good.... As I post these pictures, my heart and my soul is filled with nothing but pure joy...on October 3 fourth and fifth I had an opportunity to tell my side of the story and there was no better place than Atlanta Georgia."
"I have to thank you Atlanta you showed up and you showed out, I haven't been on stage in 18 years but I needed the stage and I needed an audience that was made up of nothing but pure love and that's what you were," he added.
He continued, "When people ask me is this a stand-up comedy show I say 'No it's an artistic explanation.' "
"Of some thing that went terribly wrong, but thanks to the great people in Atlanta especially piedmont hospital you enabled me to come back and be on stage and do what I love to do the most...," Foxx wrote. "#nobaddays as my guy James would say #secondchance... thank you ATLANTA #swipeleft."
In the pictures, he looked emotional. In one of the family portraits, his 16-year-old daughter Anelise was seen playing an electric guitar beside her father.

Actor Jamie Foxx went through a medical emergency about which he claimed earlier that it was so bad that he wasn't sure he'd survive.
The actor released a video on Instagram last year, tearfully talking about his suffering and why he kept the details of his physical condition private. He captioned the video, "Thank u a billion to everybody... been a long road but all the prayers great people and God got me through...."
"I cannot even begin to tell you how far it took me and how it brought me back," Jamie said. "I went through something I never dreamed I'd have to go through."
Why he waited so long to speak, Jamie stated that he did not want anybody to see him with tubes protruding from his body, adding, "I want you to see me laughing, having a good time, partying, cracking a joke, doing a movie, a television show."
Jamie debunked internet rumours that he was paralysed and blind, admitting he went through "hell and back," but is now able to work despite minor setbacks in his recuperation.
