    He came back from being brain dead and multiple strokes. That's a miracle and a honey badger

    Good to hear he's doing better. Is true he made his bed but his upbringing was .... Really though. Who knows how any of us would deal with amount of emotional pain he's been through.

    I actually had a dream last night that the Rockets were playing the Lakers in LA for a preseason game tonight and Lamar Odom miraculously checked into the game for the Lakers. The whole stadium went berserk and the rockets let him score during his only possession.

    Glad to hear he is improving. Most people don't get a second or third chance. If this doesn't serve a a wake up call I don't know what will.

    He is not brain dead at all and doesn't seem to have any brain damage from what is reported.
    BUt we don't know about his kidneys. He may have to be on dialysis for the rest of his life. (which as sad and terrible as it sounds may be an extreme reason his life will be saved in the end. Because he will have to quit all drugs from now on..)

    Physically speaking, Lamar Odom's body is in the top 1% of all humans. His body is able to withstand a lot more than what a lay person could. The majority of people out there would have succumbed to what Lamar Odom put his body through.

    Must be nice to be blessed with elite physical attributes.

    Watch out, someone might call you a racist like they did me for saying the same thing with different wording in another thread. Screw our offended society!

    Lol.

    I wish prayers worked for all those infants that are born with illnesses and end up dying.

    If only we had another 100 prayers for each of those kids, we could have saved their lives. :(
