“So I vanished for a while…A month ago I sustained a serious head injury that put me out of commission,” Dustin explained in his post, without sharing just how the injury was sustained.

He went on, saying that he’s “showing little improvement, my doctors ordered me to shut off my brain in hopes of it healing. This has been a challenging, frightening time for a creative type who depends on what’s in his skull to work, care and love. And now I understand the road back will be long.”

“But this week my sweet, over the top husband took us to the Greek Islands to make me shut off,” Dustin adds of the picturesque pictures he shared with fans. “I can already feel this trip is a step in the right direction, and I finally feel safe sharing a bit again. Thank you for all of your love and patience. More to come. Promise.”

Dustin, who is the creator of FX’s Under the Banner of Heaven, and husband, Tom Daley, were last seen at Wimbledon together in July.
