Jessie J is updating fans on her cancer battle. The beloved former Voice coach and singer took to Instagram to share a post about “the honest lows and highs” she experienced in the days surrounding her surgery.

The post featured photos and videos from Jessie J’s time in the hospital. Her partner, Chanan Colman, and their 2-year-old son, Sky, appear in some pics. Other shots show the singer in her hospital bed.

“I will always show the good and hard bits of any journey I go through,” she wrote alongside her post. “Grateful to my doctor / surgeon and all the nurses who cared for me and all my family / friends who came to visit.”

“I am home now, to rest and wait for my results. Chanan is in a nurse outfit. No no, he isn’t, but funny to imagine,” Jessie J continued. “Still hugging everyone going through something tough right now. We all got this!”
