“My stepdad ‘Coco’s dad’ was a serious ‘No Masker’ COVID hit him,” he wrote on Twitter at the time. “Pneumonia in both lungs… 40 days in intensive care near death… Now he’s on oxygen indefinitely. “
Ice-T also shared a photo of his stepfather wearing an oxygen mask, writing, “Ohhh, he’s a believer now .. #COVIDisNotAGame.”
The hip-hip icon told Jimmy Fallon last year, “Coco’s dad is a guy who doesn’t hide in Harley Davidson,” he said. “[Coronavirus] put it on your back.
He went on to explain that Steve had pneumonia in both lungs and was almost put on a ventilator.
“It took her a month to get out of the hospital,” Ice-T said. “Now he’s home, but his lungs are damaged indefinitely. “
It took her stepfather “a month to get out of the hospital.”
“There are still non-believers,” he said of the public’s response to the potentially deadly coronavirus. “I’ve been through so much in my life that I don’t want to die because of it, especially with a new girl. I am aware and I am worried and I am careful.
