Last year, billy porter battled severe sepsis that left him on life support and in a coma.
Billy Porter reported the cause as severe sepsis last year, which forced him onto life support and into a coma, and the immediate consequence was a life-threatening hospitalization that he later described as altering his outlook.
Today, Porter reflected emotionally on surviving the episode and said the illness gave him a new perspective on life and mortality; he summed that change with the line, "I'm a walking miracle."
Prince William sent a get-well letter that Billy Porter received, the account notes, but the source provides no date or additional detail about when the letter was sent or the contents of the correspondence.
