Ever since Lamar Odom nearly died last week after falling into a coma from an alleged drug overdose, his estranged wife, Khloe Kardashian, has been by his bedside, making medical decisions on his behalf when need be and supporting him. Khloe chose to remain silent as she cared for Odom. But now she’s finally decided to open up about her estranged husband’s health.
As previously reported, Odom is being moved to an L.A. area medical facility to receive specialized treatment to deal with his numerous unresolved medical issues. Doctors have told Odom and his family that he’ll have to undergo several months of rehab involving physical, speech, and other therapists.
Doctors say Odom may have permanent damage from the ordeal, but the extent of any possible damage is unknown for now.
Reports have also claimed that Kardashian plans to stay right by Odom’s side throughout the long recovery process, even though she’s moved on from their marriage.
Well, Kardashian finally gave her take on Odom’s health crisis and thanked everyone from her family to the hospital staff for helping to keep Odom alive and in good spirits.
“The past week has been incredibly difficult,” Kardashian wrote on her website. “I am so thankful to family, friends, and fans, who have sent nothing but prayers and well wishes to Lamar. I also want to take a moment to thank everyone at Sunrise Hospital, including the amazing doctors and nurses for their kindness and diligent work. Under their amazing care, incredible strides have been made. You can never be prepared for an experience like this, but without the outpouring of love and endless prayers that Lamar has received and the strength I was given from my loved ones, it would have been difficult to endure. Thank you for your continued support. God is great!!!”
We’re glad to hear that Odom is doing better, but Kardashian isn’t the only one from his camp who released a statement about his health this week. Read what his aunt had to say in a statement, after the cut.
