Family matters. Kim Kardashian and her mom, Kris Jenner, flew back to Las Vegas on Saturday, Oct. 17, to be with Khloe Kardashian as she remains by estranged husband Lamar Odom's bedside in the hospital, Us Weekly can confirm.
They were with Khloe on Tuesday, Oct. 13, when she rushed from L.A. to be with Odom after he was found unconscious in a Nevada brothel.
The former Los Angeles Laker was in critical condition for nearly 72 hours, but his status improved slightly on Friday, Oct. 16, when he "opened his eyes" and "grabbed the doctor's hand," an insider confirmed to Us.
Odom was hospitalized after he took what a source told Us was "a significant amount of cocaine" and herbal Viagra over a heavy weekend of partying at the Love Ranch South, a legal brothel in Pahrump, Nev.
The 35-year-old was transferred to Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas on Tuesday, where he suffered a series of strokes and was placed on a respirator to breathe and dialysis for his kidneys.
As Us Weekly previously reported, Khloe, who is legally responsible for all medical decisions related to Odom, was "inconsolable." Odom suffered brain swelling and a source told Us that doctors were concerned that the former NBA star might have suffered brain damage.
