Bone Thugs-n-Harmony’s Krayzie Bone shared an update from his hospital bed after he was hospitalized and placed in an induced coma last week.

The 50-year-old rapper posted an update on Instagram nine days after he was hospitalized for sarcoidosis, a rare condition that causes small patches of swollen tissue, called granulomas, to develop in the organs of the body.
