Morris described the post surgery period as an “agonizing process”.
“I am feeling a little worse and more sore today, but still on the road to a full recovery,” he said. “Had to switch pain pills as the Lortab was making my body itch like crazy.”

It was later revealed that Morris had reconstructive surgery on his neck and nasal passage and was undergoing several biopsies to determine the situation of his health conditions.
