Chicago Fire actor Daniel Kyri was hospitalized over the weekend and shared a photo from his hospital bed.

Daniel plays firefighter Darren Ritter on the One Chicago shows. After some shuffling at the firehouse, the character recently joined Truck 81.

Daniel shared a surprising post on Tuesday, revealing he has been hospitalized for several days. He popped up on social media to urge people to vote.

“I was hospitalized Sunday Initially planned to vote yesterday but spent the day in the ICU. I wanted to vote in this election,” Daniel wrote.

“I refused to miss it. So I did some research and talked to the staff here. With their help (and my hero @jackball10 ) I was able to cast this vote from my hospital bed. I look a mess but I feel like a sexy citizen. You can do this. Please vote. There are so many ways to do it. Please vote,” he added.

The post finished with hashtags indicating he was sick and had voted.
