I also don’t know if there’s an invisible pink teapot circling the sun. I’m some nobody musing on a message board not a fair witness. ---

Dunno if any of the substances he was (ab)using were prescription drugs. However, if any of them were, it’s a safe bet that no doctor will give him a prescription after this. Not worth risking being the doc who supplied Odom with the means for another overdose. ---

Just saw a pop up on Facebook that says Odom has been discharged from the hospital in Vegas and transferred to a hospital in Los Angeles. There was no other information. ---

They fit him into the helicopter this time. Should make it easier for Khloe. Since her home is in the LA area. > **[Lamar Odom Returns to L.A.

When “Lamar Odam might die” almost immediately turns into “wasn’t he married to that fat girl?”. I’m sure people feel wonderful when they read that stuff. I think that the ones who actually work on his health needs should prioritize per your standards. Otherwise, there’s no reason to get anybody’s underwear in a bunch. And, let’s be real: if he wasn’t married to one of the fat ones, it wouldn’t be on this board. Chill, dude. ---

> [@G0sp3l](#): > > Warned them, or perhaps alerted would have been a better word, that maybe Lamar needed to be spoken to about his choices… but I think that you should try a harder to get through to the people you claim to care about. Not to be too big a jerk about it, but, I have been in such a situation; it is far easier and more pruductive to talk to a tree and demand that it produce $100 bills. ---

Odom is now well enough to not be in a hospital. He has been transferred to a [private facility](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/lamar-odom-leaves-los-angeles-hospital_56916d9be4b0cad15e650c2b?utm_hp_ref=canada&ir=Canada§ion=canada&adsSiteOverride=ca).
