Lamar Odom Reportedly Transferred to Los Angeles Hospital for Further Medical Treatment

None

When the initial reports emerged of Lamar Odom being found unconscious in a Las Vegas brothel, it appeared to be a dire situation.

Odom was on life support, unable to breathe on his own, and Kobe Bryant left a Lakers preseason game to come visit him, while his estranged wife Khloe Kardashianimmediately flew to Vegas to be by Odom's side.

But there's now good news to report where Odom's recovery is concerned. His condition has been improving over the past few days, and the latest reports, including one from ESPN's Ramona Shelburne, say that Odom was successfully transferred to a hospital in Los Angeles via helicopter on Monday night.

They left Las Vegas around 5 p.m. PT, and he was in a private room in a L.A. hospital later that night, according to sources.

Odom has had a lot of tragedy in his life, but literally everyone who has come in contact with him has positive things to say about what a truly great person he is. Hopefully the recovery continues, and maybe this latest outpouring of support will help him get things going in a positive direction.
