Actor Jamie Foxx suffered an undisclosed 'medical complication' in April while filming 'Back in Action' with Cameron Diaz
Jamie Foxx savored the support from the nearest and dearest in his life just days after publicly speaking about the "medical complication" that sent him to "hell and back" earlier this year.
Foxx, 55, found comfort from longtime friend Barbra Streisand, as he shared her words of wisdom on Instagram Saturday evening.
"Dear Jamie, So great to see your face today and hear you speak," she wrote across her social media platforms with a photo of the pair from a Netflix event.
"I've been sending you lots of love and light and will keep doing that forever. I love you, Barbra." Foxx commented on her post, "God Blessings."
Streisand joined a long list of Hollywood favorites celebrating Foxx's healthy return to the public eye. The "Ray" actor finally broke his silence Friday after a months-long hiatus, and told his millions of followers that he had been through something he thought he "would never, ever go through."

Foxx and Streisand have previously performed on stage together.
The Grammy-winner joined Babs on one of her stops at the Barclays Center in 2016, to sing a soulful rendition of "Climb Ev'ry Mountain" from "The Sound of Music."

"I cannot even begin to tell you how far it took me, and how it brought me back," he said after thanking fans for their prayers.
"I went through something that I thought I would never, ever go through. I know a lot of people were waiting, or wanting to hear updates, and to be honest with you – I just didn't want you to see me like that."

He added, "I want you to see me laughing, having a good time, partying, cracking a joke, doing a movie, television show. I didn't want you to see me with tubes running out of me and trying to figure out if I was going to make it through."

"I cannot tell you how great it feels to have your family kick-in in such a way… ya'll know they kept it airtight. They didn't let nothing out. They protected me, and that's what I hope everyone can have in moments like these."
Foxx also addressed rumors that spread while he was in the hospital claiming he had been blinded or paralyzed, and said the allegations weren't true, but that he did go "to hell and back."
He became emotional thinking of all the love he received in one of his darkest times, and said the last few months have been "tough."
"I've been sick man, but now, I've got my legs under me, so you're going to see me out," he said. "I'm here on Earth because of some great people. I'm here on Earth because of God."
Foxx reminded his legions of followers, "I'm on my way back."
