The then went on to explain, "I struggled to write this but everyone keeps calling me and honestly, I can't even really talk anymore I'm so weak. I almost died Sunday. I was found in a pool of blood from my friend with a face injury."

Braxton continues, "As the days go by the worse it is. I fractured my nose, lost some teeth and mobility. The way I look at life now is totally different. As my health is on the mend my mental journey begins. Pray for me for real I don't even know what happened to me."

It's currently unclear what happened to Braxton and where she was when she was found by her friend, but the incident was clearly serious.

Braxton did not share any photos showing her extensive injuries.

Tamar, who regularly posts on social media has been quiet in the last few days before posting the news about her scary injury, only putting up promo for an upcoming television appearance.
