Tow #6 Lamar Odom Hospitalized

For this week’s Text of the Week, the recently hospitalization of Lamar Odom will be brought to light. Lamar Odom being an NBA star athlete, every part of his life is public regardless if he wants it to be or not. Starting from his divorce with Khloe Kardashian to when his infant passing away, his life is always being broadcasted over and over again. On Tuesday afternoon, Lamar Odom was found in a hotel room on the ground unresponsive. He was in the hospital fighting for his life, the next 48 hours being critical. Lamar Odom fans and basketball fans in general are supporting him and his ongoing struggles in his life. With tweets, Facebook messages, and text messages overwhelming with love and support, Lamar’s generous personality is being missed as he is in the hospital. The support shows how genuine the athletic community is towards their star players once they fall and are unable to get up at first. Now five days later, Lamar is able to speak in complete sentences (although they are slow and soft spoken it is still showing positive progress,) and breathe on his own without a breathing tube, while also being able to move his muscles and respond to questions that he is being asked. Without the updates from the social media and his family and friends, not many people would know of Lamar’s condition. We also wouldn’t know that his divorce with his wife (Khloe Kardashian) has been put on hold, because of the recent turn of events. While in the hospital, it truly caught the audience’s hearts when the reason for Lamar waking up was because he heard his wife Khloe say I love you, and wanted to respond back. With the multiple facts and hooks which are presented, besides those, and the recent hospital event, it has presented it’s validity and is a candid story.
