12 Strokes, 6 Heart Attacks: Odom's Near-Death
31 Mar
Summary
- Lamar Odom suffered 12 strokes and six heart attacks.
- Khloe Kardashian managed his care for four months.
- Odom was found unconscious at a Nevada brothel.
In a new documentary, Lamar Odom disclosed the severe health crisis he faced after his October 2015 overdose, revealing he suffered 12 strokes and six heart attacks. These events were described as "no average s--t" by the former NBA player.
Khloe Kardashian, though in the process of divorcing Odom, put their split on hold and took over his medical care. She remained at his side daily for approximately four months at the hospital, determined to help him regain mobility.
Odom's medical journey began at Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas after being found unresponsive at the Love Ranch. Following a three-day coma, he woke and was transferred to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, eventually moving to a private rehab facility in January 2016.
During this challenging period, Odom noted the difficulty for him to express appreciation to Kardashian, as his condition prevented him from showing his gratitude or emotions.
