Doctor says I have only weeks left to live — Singer Ray J
Ray J, the American singer and television personality, has raised alarm after revealing that his health has deteriorated sharply following a recent hospital stay.
In an emotional video shared online, the 44-year-old said doctors have warned he may not live beyond the next few weeks, casting doubt on whether he will see 2027.
Health crisis linked to years of partying
Ray J explained that years of heavy drinking and nonstop partying have taken a severe toll on his body, especially his heart.
He claimed doctors told him his heart is working at only 25 per cent capacity, leaving him weak and constantly unwell.
The singer admitted he once drank several bottles of alcohol in one night, saying the lifestyle choices he made earlier in life have finally caught up with him.
He described the situation as frightening and said he now lives with constant uncertainty about his future.
Desperate search for treatment
In a bid to stay alive, Ray J revealed plans to travel to Haiti in the coming weeks to explore alternative treatment options.
He said the decision comes from desperation, as conventional medical options have offered little reassurance so far.
The update followed a recent hospitalisation in Las Vegas, where he was treated for severe pneumonia and heart-related pain.
This incident adds to a history of health struggles that have repeatedly forced him off the spotlight.
Family support during difficult time
During the video, Ray J expressed deep gratitude to his parents for standing by him throughout the ordeal.
He also gave special thanks to his sister, Brandy, revealing she has been helping him cover medical and living expenses.
Fans have since flooded social media with messages of support, prayers, and encouragement for the singer’s recovery.
