Dave Blunts continues to fight his way to good health.

On Tuesday (February 18), following yet another hospitalization, the Iowa rapper announced that he was discharged, with a video of himself being wheeled out with his oxygen tank.

"Yes sir! I made it out!" the 23-year-old said while holding a bag of his clothing in one hand and a flower arrangement in another, as seen in the video below. "It's my first day out, last day in."

The clip ended with Blunts, real name Davion Blessing, assuring the security guard that he could walk, and giving him a handshake.

In the caption, Blunts declared, "DEMON HOME." First Day Out Last Day In I'm never going back to the hospital!"

Blunts also shared a heartfelt message to fans via X, formerly Twitter, where he explained that this trip to the hospital was more "devastating than any other previous hospital visit" because, "due to my health, I haven't been able to finish my album."

Last month, Blunts went on a brief tour, surprising fans that he was able to stand up after previously being seated with his oxygen tank during a Juice WRLD Day in Chicago last December.

In one promo clip for an upcoming single, "First Day Out Of The Hospital," Blunts crooned that he was trying to "change," with scenes of him tossing his signature purp cup and exhaustedly walking up the stairs.

Blunts was heckled about his weight by Snoop Dogg last year but told the West Coast rapper that he doesn't know what it's like to "fight for your life every damn day."

Dave Blunts was hospitalized back in January and announced the news on social media after a video of him asleep in his hospital bed was leaked. "Yesterday instead of taking care of his kids or checking to see if he got any jobs that responded to his indeed applications a 40 year old man decided to come into my room while I was asleep and record me in my hospital bed I then wake up to several blogs and pages posting that I’m in the hospital," he wrote in a caption of the post.
