Fred The Godson revealed he was in the hospital battling COVID-19 earlier this week. According to News 12 Brooklyn, his prognosis is grim. Doctors reportedly told his wife “he might not make it.”

“It was just like — he’s gone and he’s gonna die, that’s it,” LeeAnn Jemmott said. “I don’t even know how I felt, I just felt like I was going to die.”

On Wednesday afternoon (April 8), the father of two daughters started showing signs of improvement.

Despite the doctors’ blunt assessment, Jemmott is hopeful.
