Report: Lamar Odom Can't Recognize Family; Doctors Fear "Serious" Brain Damage
According to a report from TMZ Sports, Lamar Odom is still struggling to recover basic functions after he suffered many strokes and was found unconscious in a Nevada brothel. They have reported that in addition to problems with basic communication and moving around, he can’t recognize people he should.
From the report:
The scariest part ... Lamar can’t recognize longtime friends and even family members when they come to visit. We’re told docs believe he’s suffered significant brain damage.
Odom has been in the hospital for over a month now. Earlier this week, Khloe Kardashian, Odom’s estranged wife, told Us Weekly that he was still working up to walking on his own. That same report also noted that Odom has been emotionally “erratic.” The American Stroke Association notes that this is a common symptom for stroke victims.
