“Okay, so I guess I’m not Superman,” Cannon wrote. “I promised myself I would never be back at this place again… But this is a great lesson to take care of YOU or YOU won’t be able to take care of everyone else.”

The actor continued: “Don’t trip though, I don’t need any well wishes or prayers , just some solid rest and I will be back on the journey to becoming stronger than ever… it’s just pneumonia, nothing I can’t handle.”

The night before he recorded his video message, Cannon was on stage at Madison Square Garden performing live in front of a sold-out New York City crowd with his Wild ‘N Out crew. Even while he was dealing with pneumonia, Cannon was also in a somber mood.

December marks the one-year anniversary of the death of Cannon’s son Zen with Ayssa Scott. Baby Zen was born on June 23, but died due to a malignant brain tumor within a few short months.
