what happened to sinbad

According to recent updates from Sinbads family, the comedian suffered an ischemic stroke after a blood clot traveled from his heart to his brain. He underwent a craniotomy, which is a procedure where surgeons cut an opening into his skull to relieve the swelling, but he experienced some bleeding and complications during the surgery that left him in the ICU in a medically induced coma on a ventilator. After months of being moved through acute care facilities, Sinbad was admitted to a rehabilitation center in May 2021. He has been improving and even recently made a cameo appearance in an episode of FX's "Atlanta". However, he is still facing health issues that have left him learning how to walk again.
