“For all who have been trying to contact me the last few days this is where I’ve been,” he captioned a snapshot of himself in a hospital bed. “And I will be in the Hospital through Christmas. All good though, Doctors say I will be back to normal before the New Year. #LupusSucks #ncredible #warrior.”

The America’s Got Talent host revealed that he had been diagnosed with lupus nephritis — which he described as a rare form of lupus attacking his kidneys — in 2012. Since then, Cannon’s been hospitalized multiple times and has been outspoken about his struggle with the autoimmune disease.
“I want to continue to educate, show people that you can live with this condition and similar conditions as long as you live right,” Cannon explained to HuffPost Live in April 2014. “I always say I’ve changed my test into a testimony.”

Just a few days ago, Cannon was at the hospital for a reason that had nothing to do with his personal health. He and the legendary Dick Gregory paid a surprise visit to patients at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. How sweet is that?

We’re sure his friendly ex has already sent flowers.
