Lamar Odom has left a Las Vegas hospital and is now in the Los Angeles area to continue his recovery a week after being found unconscious at a Nevada brothel, a family representative has said.
The former NBA star was transported by helicopter from Sunrise Hospital and Medical Centre in Las Vegas, according to a statement from Alvina Alston, publicist for his aunt JaNean Mercer. She did not say where he had been taken in Los Angeles.
The family statement thanked the hospital and Lamar’s fans and said his estranged wife, Khloe Kardashian, his father and his two children from a previous relationship were with him.
“He continues to make miraculous progress, taking a few steps in Los Angeles,” the statement said.
News of his release came a day after a family statement said the sportsman and reality TV star’s condition was improving. It said he was overcoming “insurmountable obstacles” and defying the odds.
Lamar was found in an extremely critical condition at the Love Ranch brothel in the rural community of Crystal, Nevada, on October 13 and taken to hospital in Las Vegas. He regained consciousness and communicated for the first time on October 16.
Brothel workers reportedly saw him drink alcohol and take supplements sold as “herbal Viagra”.
Lamar’s family, including Khloe, rushed to his bedside at the Las Vegas hospital. Friends, teammates and loved ones also visited and posted requests for prayers on social media.
