The Latest: Lamar Odom’s Life ‘Will Never Be the Same'
Lamar Odom remains in the hospital five weeks after he was found unconscious at a brothel in Nevada.
Odom is reportedly far from a full recovery, since he is unable to walk by himself and has trouble communicating verbally, issues that stem from the strokes and oxygen deprivation he suffered following his drug overdose. A source told People, "Lamar has made some progress, but his cognitive impairment is making life very challenging.”
Another source close to wife Khloé Kardashian added, "Lamar won't likely leave the hospital for a long time. And when he does, he will need full-time care. He can't take care of himself. Lamar has serious long-term and lasting issues. His life will never be the same as it once was.”
While Lamar is going through the long recovery process, he is getting love and support from Khloé. The insider shared, "With Khloé in his life, Lamar is very lucky. She has been amazing.”
