Tori Kelly is "feeling stronger" in the wake of her health scare and hospitalization.
The 30-year-old singer gave an update Thursday on Instagram after experiencing "some unexpected health challenges."
"as you may have heard, i'm dealing with some unexpected health challenges. it's been a scary few days but i can feel your prayers & can't stop thinking about you," Kelly said in a handwritten note.
"i'm feeling stronger now & hopeful but unfortunately there are still some things to uncover," she added. "i'm so grateful for the amazing doctors & nurses who have been looking after me."
Kelly was to release a new EP, Tori, on Friday, and said the album release will go ahead as planned. The singer has canceled her other promotional activities for the EP.
"of course i'm heartbroken about all of the things i had planned for this week of releasing my EP, but i know my health must come first," she said. "until i see you again, i still want you to enjoy a project that represents the happy place i've been in the last few years. i won't let this hurdle prevent the music from being yours on friday!"
Kelly ended her note by thanking fans.
"i love you all so much & i am truly overwhelmed by all of the love & care i have received. thank you from the bottom of my heart!" she said.
TMZ reported Monday that Kelly was at dinner with friends Sunday in Los Angeles when she collapsed. The singer was rushed to the hospital, where doctors reportedly discovered blood clots in her legs and lungs.
