On Sunday evening, Dean McDermott was hospitalized after having a high fever. And on Monday morning, he revealed that he had been hospitalized the previous evening.
His Instagram post reads, “So this happened last night. I got admitted to hospital with pneumonia, possibly meningitis. I’ve never been so sick in my life!!!! Thumbs up and spirits up though,” with an image of his selfie.
In the same post, he reminded his followers to listed his Daddy Issues show, adding the hashtags “sick as a dog, ain’t no thang, this to shall pass, and blip on the radar.”
His health update came a day after he shared that he had been hospitalized after having a high fever and had also thrown out his back.
In another post, he wrote, “I’m so BUMMED!!! I’ve been laid out for 2 days because I threw my back out. Now I got hit with a fever of 102,” along with a video of himself in bed.
The Canadian-American actor said his health issues had prevented him from spending time with his wife and their daughter Stella.
He added, “Needless to say it ruined the family’s plans to fly to Vancouver today to see @torispelling & @stylishslimebystella I tell ya, I’m going to be one ornery elderly person. I get really pissed off when I can’t do things and move the way I want. And I’m already ornery as it is!!”
Last week, the 52-year-old actor spoke out against the online body shamers who commented on photographs of his 12-year-old son Liam. McDermott said that his son was bothered by such comments.
McDermott said on the podcast, “Liam picked it up, and that’s when I really went ballistic, because it’s like, you know, it’s gonna happen. He said, ‘Dad, am I obese?’ I said, ‘Look buddy — there’s some sick people in the world… and they need to do stuff like this. They need to say bad things about people.’” He added, “Think about it, son. You have a busy life. You have school, you got sports; do you think you have time to go on Instagram, scroll through the people that you’re following, and make a negative comment about somebody?’ I said, ‘No, you don’t. You don’t, and if you did, you’d fill your time with something else. So think about how sick these people are that they have to do that.’”
